Yes. I know the Super Chief had ride along mechanics and spare parts in the baggage car as well as stock piles in Chicago and Los Angeles in the early years. The box cabs (1,1A/10 and 512) as well as the E1s, suffered from growing pains. Yet Santa Fe knew this was the future and invested heavily in their success.
