For a while one Brewster commute run carried a bar car (more were added in the late 60s) --- a converted heavyweight dining car which I believe was #1597..

In the same period there were a couple of Poughkeepsie based through commute runs to & from GCT.* Were there any bar cars on those trains? I'm asking for modeling purposes.
