My guess is either No. 18 or 46.  The box mail cars on the headend were seen on both trains. The other “candidate” is 42 but 42 came through around midnight. Given the sun seems to be shining from the south, 46 is the best guess as it was there shortly after 2pm if OT. 1956 is just after 46 gave up its streamlined consist and also added much mail/express.
