Indeed Rick, what I was inferring, but did not make clear, was that there were no additional round end cars available as they only ordered two to start with. The PM tavern lounge cars often had fill in roles on these and other trains.

Remember that N&W had three PM class tavern-lounge cars and it took two to cover the Pocahontas, leaving a spare.  On page 84 of Jim Nichol's N&W in Color Volume 1 is a photo of the Powhatan Arrow with a PM car substituting for a P4.
