Finally I can help you!  :~)

PRR 8411-8418 renumbered ? into PRR 7148-7155 before the merger.
The PC retained those same numbers.

Colonial series

7148=Colonial Cabins....7149=""Crafts... 7150=""Flags ...7151=""
Arms...7152"" Houses... 7153 Nicholas Firestone?  ...7154""Lanterns...
7155"" Scouts.

Pullman floor plan was kept.--Drawing room, 3 double bedroom, and
lounge. Trucks were 2E-P7  Built 1949


Lon and listers

Some additional info if you are interested.  The PRR converted the cars to
parlor service during 5/64 (same configuration as noted above) when
they were removed from Pullman lease.  They were renumbered at the
same time.  Car 7153 (originally 8416) was originally named Colonial
Doorways and was renamed Nicholas Firestone during 8/55.
