It seems to me that Michigan (Detroit/Pontiac) service is an ideal place for "oddball" equipment because each set assigned to the service makes one round-trip a day. The equipment that starts the day in Chicago ends the day in Chicago. The two that start in Pontiac end up back in Chicago unless a different set is swapped in during the Chicago layover. So using Talgos for the two sets that overnight in Pontiac is ideal as they will be there for maintenance every night. Chicago need do nothing except routine turn servicing.
Talgos on the two Pontiac overnights and something out of the Chicago pool for the Chicago overnight. Actually makes it quite simple as Chicago no longer needs to worry about bringing the Pontiac based sets to the yard during the turn to swap out cars, etc..
