After looking through my photo collection, the two sections of the final
westbound Phoebe Snow:

First section: Led by 816 + 81?, no head-end cars, a pair of 1000-series
"modernized" ex-Erie cars head out

Second section: Led by 814 + 817, ex-Erie lightweight baggage car right
behind the power


So, based on that, the train in the November calendar shot appears to be the
first section.
