    • 1934 February, B. K. Cooper, “Some Great Central Reflections”, in Railway Magazine, page 83:
      A small ornamental panel displayed the Great Central's slogan, "Each Express is Vestibuled and has a Buffet Car attached." The buffet car is now being successfully exploited again by the L.N.E.R., but it is only last May that this facility returned to its parent line after a long absence.
