Nostalgia & History > 1960's Klamath Mail TrainDate: 11/04/12 06:26 1960's Klamath Mail Train Author: obsessedfoamer I'm looking for any consist info for the Klamath Mail in the early to mid 1960's. The only good photographs online I'm aware of are from Bob Morris. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks PT Date: 11/04/12 06:48 Re: 1960's Klamath Mail Train Author: qnyla Here is a Henry Brueckman shot from 1964 of train 19 with SP 6458 on the point.

Can anyone identify the cars in this photo? Any specific car #'s would be helpful also. First car looks like a Automat, and the rear two look to be Daylight coaches. Edited 1 time(s).

The 6458 is the only FP7 or passenger F7 I'm aware of that had the ice-sickle breakers applied while still in Black Widow. Anyone know of any others? Pat Date: 11/04/12 14:16 Re: 1960's Klamath Mail Train Author: PHall Cabhop Wrote:

Just vending > machines My point exactly. Date: 11/05/12 11:59 Re: 1960's Klamath Mail Train Author: Kookiejar I believe 6449 had icicle breakers in Black Widow. There may be a couple others. I will check in a couple days when I have access to the info.
