PC: Re: HO Scale 50' Troop Sleepers

[lnrr@xxxxxxxx]

While not a PC car, there is an express baggage car that was converted
from a troop sleeper at the North Alabama Railroad Museum in Huntsville,
Alabama. The former Monon car is now used for storage. NARM also has an
unmodified (and unrestored) troop sleeper.

For those interested in a restored, original car, visit the B&O Museum in
Baltimore. For that matter, anyone interested in railroading should visit
the B&O museum. It's one of the greats. They are very helpful to
researchers, too.
