CB&Q 4739 SILVER HALTER
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 4739, named SILVER HALTER, date, location, and photographer unknown, Chuck Zeiler collection. Hand written on the back of the print: "Denver Zephyr Coach K22856-1" That number appears in the dirt below the right truck. This is probably a builder's photo, in that case, the location would be Philadelphia around February 1956
Number 4739 was built by Budd on Job 9613-169, one of five 50-seat coaches ordered for the second Denver Zephyr in February 1955, delivered in February 1956, equipped with Heywood Wakefield "Sleepy Hollow" seats
Sometime after May 1, 1971 it became Amtrak coach 5016 . In November 1985 it was re-configured, converted to HEP, and renumbered Amtrak Cafeteria 8716, rebuilt to Amtrak Cafeteria 8532 in November 2008.
