Darth Santa Fe … I don’t know why I can’t post in your thread. There is no REPLY box.
Santa Fe intermixed passenger cars from various car manufacturers in the same trains.
I do have a book entitled “25 Years of Sanat Fe Passenger Train Consists” (or some similar title).
Do you have a particluar Santa Fe train in mind? … I think the E6’s were used mostly on regional Sanat Fe trains rather than the transontinental trains.
There is a reply box, but if You are not using a PC with a large screen You won’t see it. His screen format is cutting off part of the right side. You can try hovering Your cursor where You think it is and maybe further, when the arrow turns to a hand, You found it, then click on it.
Part of the ‘‘Y’’ of reply and parts of the above text are missing, on the right side. I’m using a 15.4’’ Acer Laptop. And on one of the reply’s, the quick reply and parts of the text are missing on the right side also.
Take Care!

EDIT: It is all there, when I copy it.
ATSF passenger cars - what to get?
Posted by Darth Santa Fe on Sunday, September 28, 2014 6:29 PM
I still need some passenger cars to put behind my Cary E6A, so I did some searching to see what was out there. I see Super Chief Pullman style cars and streamlined Budd cars from Walthers, and I’m kind of leaning towards the Budd cars since they’re about $40 cheaper per car. What I don’t know is what would be appropriate for the E6A? It’s somewhat hard to find simple info on the subject. Roster websites are all like “These cars were with this engine from 11 to 12 on a Monday in this city, with numbers THX-1138 divided by the square root of pi on the hexadecimal value of the third weekend of 1956 minus 24x times 84 multiplexers where q is equal to 4y minus x and i comes before e except after c”. After the surgeon repaired my brain, I thought I’d come here and see if I could get a simpler answer?
