Rolling stock
Need to add more info re: Equipment Used, both motive power and rolling stock. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lordkinbote (talk • contribs) 20:50, March 19, 2005‎


 * For more information about the Hi-Level equipment, you may want to consult the feature article in Railway Age from July 9, 1956. I received permission from the publisher to post a scanned copy of this article on-line at streamlinersched...ra19560709elcapitan.pdf. Be advised that it's quite large, 12.5 MB. See the related timetable page (www.streamlinersched...elcapitan195607.html) for the citation information. Ehbowen (talk) 04:54, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:OP-2149.jpg
Image:OP-2149.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Imagine caption obviously wrong
If the first Hi-Level cars didn't arrive until July 1956, the postcard illustrating a Hi-Level reequipped El Capitan can hardly be from 1950. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:6000:A645:2100:3D57:BB20:652:CC55 (talk) 11:20, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, a random IP removed the "s" from 1950s a few months ago. Reverted. Mackensen (talk) 11:26, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
