CBQ CZ Chair Cars 4717 (Lodge) and 4718 (Lariat)
Posted by NP Eddie on Sunday, December 14, 2014 6:04 PM

I  purchased the CBQ "Passenger Car Diagrams" and have cross-referenced their numbers with "Car Names, Numbers, and Consists".

Only two cars are not listed in the Passenger Car Diagrams", they are CZ Chair cars 4717 (Silver Lodge) and 4718 (Silver Lariat)

Did those two cars have floor plans the same as 4716 and 4721-4721 or 4719-20? The 4710-20 have a conductors booth instead of a locker.

Thank you,

My apologies--my comments should say that the 4719-20 had a conductors booth instead of a locker.

CB&Q 4716-4718 (Silver Bridle, Lodge, Lariat), D&RGW 1105 (Bronco) and WP 811-812 (Dollar, Feather) had the same floor layout, with the "Women and Children" section in front and a partition door behind the entrance to the Women's Lounge under the dome.
