Re: (erielack) Troop sleeper/Express, redux
Yes, the DLW GMY express troop sleepers.
I would have hated to have one circulating that wasn't prototypically lettered :)

Thanks to Bill Botkin for pointing out something I forgot about. I was
referring to the troop sleepers in MOW service, not the handful that got

I have one or two photos at home that I'll look at tonight to find out
if there was a separation or not (e.g., name was only on one side)...
