With the abundance of electricity, it would have been easy to siphon a bit of juice off a deisal with an inverter and use a hot plate or something. When My wife and I drove, we would invert the truck power to about 1500 watts of 120 volt A/C this enabled us to do some full meals on the move. Saved us about 12,000 USD a year. It is also possible that the railroad had arranged for crews to be at a local eateary from time to time in which they were served well. The old N and W books showed pictures of the train crew getting meals trackside by a waitress from the town restraunt. Lee
