I am IINTRIGUED by the identity / configuration of the first car in this train. Would suspect its heritage is either C&O OR Rio Grande, based on the window spacing and the fluting below the belt line.

The first car is likely an ex-Penn Central ex-D&RGW car. The second car is a former PRR 21 roomete "inn" series sleeper converted to a acoahc in 1963-64, and the last car is a former N&W "college/county" 10 roomette-6 double bedroom sleeper, also converted to a coach by PRR in 1963-64.
