Cavalier and Pochahantas cars

[NW Mailing List]

Tony:  Depends on what year you wish to model for each train.  Plus the
consists were not constant as cars were added/subtracted due to business
level changes and routing changes.  PLUS, where on the system you wish to
model becomes important as to what was in the consist at that location as
Pullman cars were added or taken off, mail storage cars were added/taken off
and so on. 

What do you have in mind?  Note that the Powhatan Arrow had P1, P2, P3's and
a P4 lightweight consist with a D1 diner after January 1950 but not for all
that long.   Heavyweight head end cars were used west of Williamson after
the Cavalier was cut back and the mail stuff transferred to the Arrow.
TLC's/Tom Dixon's new book on the ARROW is informative.
