Actually it was pretty much cast in stone until the very end when the  
company switched around those cars that ran to replace those that  
wore out.   Before that, for example, the 730s were always mainline  
cars.

The 712 you mentioned as a Latrobe car was earlier on a Brownsville  
car.   Depends on the year.
