I was looking through some old NMRA Bulletins and I came across the Santa Fe’s Autoveyor articulated auto carrier. The article is just after Santa Fe introduced it, so I was wondering if it caught on at all, are any operating now, where they would be operating, stuff like that. Of course, any information that would help in modelling would be good, too.

Well, after doing a google search on the reporting marks (why didn’t I think of that before?), it looks like only that one 3-unit set was ever made and it looks like it went missing from service in 2001.
I did find some pictures at http://www.qstation.org/Intermodal_ATSF/Autoracks/ though, so here’s what it looks like for those of you who aren’t familiar.
Again, any information anybody has on this car would be greatly appreciated.
