Modeling Passenger Trains, Yay or Nay?
#9
"Chuck Hitckcock did an interesting story on passenger operations at a passenger terminal (Argentine, KS) in Model Railroad Planning 1997 - he operated a dozen trains a day, coming in from different directions and either terminating in the yard at Argentine, or having cars swapped out - head end cars of mail or express goods, taking off a parlor-observation car from train #11 and putting it on train #211 and so on and so forth."

While this is true he has since ditched that and rebuilt the layout as a industrial switching layout.
