Any sample N&W passenger train consists?

Frank -

I don't have any specific consists, but you can say that before, say, 1965 
(I don't have the exact date when USMail quit going on the rails), trains 3, 
4,15, 16, 17, 18,23, 24,41 and 42 had RPO cars AND storage mail cars.  Also 
the Bristol Line locals, nos. 9 and 10, had them.
