The three private cars were en route from Chicago to Emeryville on the California Zephyr and then to Portland on the Coast Starlight for the National Association of Railroad Passengers Board of Directors fall meeting. After one night in Oakland and four nights in Portland they coupled to the Empire Builder for a trip to Whitefish and Glacier National Park. The next day they continued on the Builder for their return to Chicago. The trip was organized by Adam Auxier and Roger Clark.
