It's a sunny afternoon on October 1, 1939 when 406 is seen brining up the the rear of a westbound train at Laramie. At this point 406 still wears the red, white, and blue scheme with the Sunset Lines hearald. The train-line jumper (enabling multiple unit operation) is visible in the lower lefthand corner.

Car 400 is at the tail end of a four-car train passing through Glen Oak on its way to Chicago in 1950. The head two cars of this afternoon train are 450 series cars. At this point, the station and canopy are still painted white. In the railroad’s later years, most structures (including the Glen Oak station) were painted red and blue-gray to match the livery of the rolling stock.
