Howdy. I was wondering if anyone out there had any info on the whereabouts of any 1200 series coaches. I know Conrail had one or two still in blue and yellow, for MOW into the late 90's. Also, a few could be in AZ on the Grand Canyon RR. Other than that, I dunno.



Thanks :)

I have pic of the Monmouth II coach and a hotboxed Blue Comet #1172 being dragged from E-Port to Mahwah during the mid-80s.

A clerestory roof car was in service on the Santa Fe Southern mixed train several years ago.
