The Dispatch is the C&TS Dispatch is the news magazine of the Friends of the C&TS. The last two issues, volume 34, #1 and #2 cover the re-construction of the #470. Some wood and iron parts of the original car are patterns built into the new car. If you are a member, or like me have access to a railroad library; take a look at this amazing project. Several of the museums have re-built passenger or freight cars; but this one is #1 for complexity and good looks. Also the first pair of Pullman trucks to be built in Colorado, I believe.
