T&P public timetable---November 1948 (the one showing a streamlined Eagle train stopped at the fictitious Eagleville):
Why did trains 7 & 8, the Southerner originate and terminate at Monahans?
Same trains: A dining lounge car operated between Sweetwater and Monahans.
Same train: A through Dallas-Lubbock sleeping car was operated over the P&SF (Santa Fe). How did the transfer occur at Sweetwater? Any details?
