Remarks & Notes

Thanks to everyone for the information of former CB&Q parlor-observation-diner "Silver Star". Built in 1939 and used for the General Pershing Zephyr. This historic car is now owned by BHP in the Pilbara area of Western Australia. And yes up front are three stored SD 40's two ex Union Pacific & the other ex Southern Pacific.
