Description: This Burlington Zephyr dining car Silver Spoon belongs to the National Museum of Transport in St. Louis. It was part a later vintage of Zephyr trains, which had more conventional cars. The original Burlington Zephyrs from the mid/late 1939s were fixed trainsets with a set of wheels joining each pair of cars, rather than each car having two sets of wheels. The Budd Company built this dining car in 1938; it seated 48 and was numbered as CB&Q #192. The cars in the background were from other railroads, and would not have been part of a Zephyr. The second might be Baltimore & Ohio.
