This one refers to the train as having 50 cars. Rounding up to 50 is probably acceptably accurate.
And this one claims the train had 100 cars, so there is a serious inaccuracy here.
So, since we're counting train cars, how many cars did it really have?
Can a more authoritative source can be found from the Federal Railway Administration?
It says there were 51 cars.
