Just have some questions about excursion trains.
Are streamliners more common cars to see than older heavyweight cars? I would imagine the age of heavyweights would make them rarer finds among private and museum ownership.
Secondly when you model your trains, do you match all cars to the same road name as the loco? I've not gone to see many excursion trains myself, but I have been watching a few youtube videos of SP4449 and Milwaukee Road 261, and both have very mismatched consists (although 261's consist typically has a majority of Milwaukee passenger cars).
Third question.. on longer runs across states, and even inter-state (Think 4449's trip to Michigan, or any steam excursion to Michigan for that matter..) Do the private groups operate dining cars for their passengers?
