*I noted with interest the above pages out of the Railway Equipment Register for
SP and UP. They are labeled as being from June 1885, but checking a copy of
the June 1885 entry, the above are not. Further, they list the private car
Mishawaka, the Crocker family car, which was not built until 1892. My guess
is the above pages
might be from around 1895. Attached below are the pages from the June 1885
Railway Equipment Register. —Kyle Wyatt, kylekwyatt@gmail.com, 7/26/2013
