Remarks & Notes 
The Quad Cities Rocket Behind the baggage car is round-end observation dome lounge car of DRG&W heritage "Big Ben" serving breakfast. Because the train was not turned in the afternoon (outbound from Chicago) he was at the end of the train, as he should have been. The last information on him I can find is that he is in Iowa awaiting rebuilding.
