On the B&O every-other-day out of Washington, D.C. was a CB&Q express car going through to Council Bluffs with storage mail. It was usually an ex-troop kitchen car and numbered in the 8800 series. (On the alternate days it was a B&O express car)
But for some reason I think that there were also ex-troop sleepers converted to CB&Q express cars numbered in the 8600 series.
Does anybody know for sure?
