[QUOTE]Originally posted by SilverStar092: [QB] Interesting to revisit the old 11 BR sleepers. I didn't recall the cars I rode skipping letter "I", a fact confirmed in my old "Pullman Company Descriptive List of Cars". Seaboard all-bedroom sleepers used car diagram 236 which shows bedrooms A-K including "I". These 6 cars were named "Avon Park, Hialeah, Ocala, Sebring, Tallahassee, and Venice". UP 11 BR sleepers from the "Placid" series: "Placid Bay, Placid Waters", etc. are from the same diagram number. My book doesn't show UP's 11 BR "Star" or "Sun" series. C&O 11 BR cars such as "Monticello", "Mount Vernon", etc. and Southern's "Royal" series ("Royal Court", etc.) are based on diagram 270 which also designates a bedroom "I". It would be interesting to see if there are indeed any cars that skip that letter. [/QB][/QUOTE]
