City of San Francisco Consist

This may seem like a silly question, but here goes. I am working on the famous "City of San Francisco" passenger train and am getting cars set up between the Walthers "City" and some of the brass passenger cars for the Oakland to UP section of the line. What I need from someone who might know is what cars did the Milw. Road give the train when it took over it for the final leg to Chicago. I am aware of it being taken from the CNW and turned over to the Milw Road. Any help would be quite helpful.
 
Common Milwaukee types on the train were:

Coaches
Storage mail
Baggage cars
Dorms
Cafe lounge
Dome Lounge
Dome diner

You could probably get away with just a coach or two, and maybe a storage mail car.

A copy of Kratville's "Union Pacific Streamliners" is great if you're modeling these trains.
