Richard -- Bangor & Aroostook also had a few. Three of their "American Flyer"coach-buffet cars were sold to Long Island. Long Island also acquired 30 "American Flyer" coaches from Boston & Maine in 1958-59. The SP cars originally were owned by St. Louis - Southwestern (Cotton Belt). They were transfered to SP in the '50s. Arthur Dubin, who had a feature in "More Classic Trains" on the "American Flyer" cars, says the SSW cars were painted in red and orange at some point. Penn Central inherited the New Haven cars still in service in 1968, and a number were painted in PC colors. I've seen no indication that GM&O, CN or GN ever had these cars.
