    7 BRASS CAR SIDES 7 Passenger Car Parts for the Streamliners CANADIAN NATIONAL AND VIA "EASTPORT" SERIES PULLMAN-STANDARD 8 DUPLEX ROOMETTE, 4 BEDROOM, 4 SECTION LIGHTWEIGHT SLEEPING CARS (PLAN 4124A) [Part No. 173-38] When CN placed its enormous order for lightweight cars with Pullman-Standard in October, 1952, it committed itself to 52 cars in the "Eastport" series, (CN 1110-1161). The 8-4-4 mix of accommodations had first appeared in the 1947 GN Empire Builder "Pass" series, but open sections were of limited popularity by 1954 when these CN pullmans were delivered. The longevity of these cars in CN and VIA service is attested to by the fact that some of the class were the only ex-CN sleepers still running on the few steam-heated VIA trains in 1994. The April, 1955 Official Guide shows these cars assigned to the Continental Ltd., Inter-City Ltd., pool trains, Nos. 45-46, the Northland, Nos. 193-194, Nos. 211- 212, and other trains. (This writer recalls riding in the bedroom of an "E" sleeper on the Super Continental from Vancouver to Jasper to Winnipeg in 1972.) BRASS CAR SIDES is pleased to offer these sides with the research assistance of Canadian modelers Al Lill, Robin Lowrie, Stafford Swain, and Lloyd Perkins. Features unique to these cars or not previously incorporated in our PS sides include the recesses behind the horizontal grabirons, space for fixed steps, lighted car number indicators, and the stretcher window. We also produce sides for the CN "Green" 6-6-4, 18-roomette "South", 17-roomette "West", 4-4-2 "Cove", 22-roomette "Val" PS sleepers, and the CCF-built CN 5437-5654 coaches.

They were the last full diners built before the advent of Amtrak. They displaced the Pullman-Standard dining cars NP 450-455 to service on the Mainstreeter. The Budd diners operated between Chicago and Seattle until the end of BN service in 1971. Dining cars were cycled in and out of eastbound No. 26 at St. Paul Union Depot and were serviced at the nearby NP Commissary. Five of the six cars were purchased by Amtrak in 1971 and operated in the North Coast Hiawatha, and later in the "Heritage Fleet", particularly on the trains between Chicago and New York and Washington. A typical summer consist for the North Coast Limited of the late 1950's and 1960's is listed below.
