It appears he is on a pretty good upward grade.  Impressive. Altho, not a lot of train to pull.  Thanks for posting!

Great video footage of no. 4!

Thank you Gone66 for the post and good look at #4. I still can't get used to the Bag Car at the end. Well, at least they had one.

Wonder if that was a transition sleeper on the end to allow underway access to the baggage car?
On the other hand, having the lounge to the rear of the diner (which is off limits to coach passengers) would indicate that last hi-level car is a coach. Another clue is the large baggage-sized door just before the baggage car. So I would conclude that any baggage in the baggage car would be handled at extended stops (e.g. Chi, KC, ABQ and LA).

Supressed consist is disgusting; two coaches and two sleepers.  After all, "we do not want this train to succeed."
