According to the March 65 Official Register, they are 8 section/2 compartment/2 bedroom and 10 roomette/3 bedroom/2 compartment. The 8-2-2 cars have Indian names starting with the letter T and the 10-3-2 cars are in the "Blue" series.

Jerome:
The 24-8 Slumbercoaches were assigned Pullman floor plan number 9540.
I found references to 8-2-2 and 10-3-2 cars but no floor plan numbers.
Hopefully others will be more lucky. It appears they were very rare floor
plans, operated by the Santa Fe for sure but no mention of anyone else having
them.
