Jerry LaBoda General Some of these cars are "left-overs" from when the Southwestern RR was operating excursions on the line. This car is a former SP diner but hard to say what its history is... 6/24/2012 9:07:36 AM
Jerry LaBoda General I wish to correct what I said in my previous post. This car is an ex-NP diner not SP as previously stated. While SP had diners that were similar the spacing of the kitchen windows was different. 7/1/2012 7:51:08 PM
Ted Brumberg General The car in the foreground is Sierra Western (SW) diner #156 LAKE PEPIN, which was built in 1948 by P-S in Lot #6768 to Plan #7540 as SLSF 36 seat diner #650 ALEXANDER DONIPHAN for the Texas Special. Sold in 1966 to GN as #1156 LAKE PEPIN, later sold by BN to SW #156. #156 was 1 of 8 Sierra Western cars in the consist of the 1984 World's Fair Daylight. #156 was acquired by Jon Clark, and is listed for sale. 7/8/2014 1:25:55 AM
