  • . The CP Dome Sleeper Lounge Observations were actually modeled after the CB&Q/D&RGW/WP Dome Sleeper Lounge Observations of the California Zephyr.The AT&SF Big Domes and the GN/CB&Q Great Dome Lounge cars were identical in seating on the upper level.
  • . The AT&SF had two types of these cars and both were quite dofferent on the lower level as was the GN/CB&Q Great Dome Lounge cars on the lower level.
  • . The UP Dome diners were beautiful cars for the passengers but talk to any of the former Dining car crews who ever worked them and they did not care much for them especially the kitchen crew.
