Another great time capsule; thank you. Slightly off-topic here, but the Nebraska Zephyr running at the Illinois Railway Museum is worth the trip there in and of itself. Rode in the Parlor Obs some years ago with friends and yes, we so wished we could have ridden it all the way to Omaha. Oh, and in summer1975 Amtrak 5 and 6 were daily through from Chicago to the Bay Area (I know this first hand). Cheers.

The motorized F units on the Denver Zephyr are called DIESELS.
