The Super Chief is a *train*, not a locomotive, so you'll never ever ever
ever hear me calling that set anything like SFSC.

Once the cars referred to become available, we'll have lots of Super Chief
models out there.. they will consist of several copies of the locomotive
followed by several copies of the cars. That's a train. Locomotives AND cars.

Out of curiosity, what was the_most_common configuration of the SFSC? How
many cars of each type? How many B-units, if more than one?

Pedro-

It would depend on which time frame you wanted, and the fact that there were
other routes besides the most famous Chicago to LA one that used different
configs.  Here is a helpful link somebody posted a while back about the Super
Chief:
