GN #1072 GEORGE F. BAKER
Description:
Built in 1929 by Pullman in Lot #6249 to Plan #3990 as barber shop-7 seat lounge-8 seat dinette (2 4-seat tables)-buffet (kitchen)-writing desk-14 seat lounge-8 seat solarium observation GEORGE F. BAKER, 1 of 8 such cars built in that Lot for the brand new EMPIRE BUILDER; cars were outshopped in May and June, the BUILDER launched on June 11th, replacing the ORIENTAL LIMITED. In February 1941, 7 of these cars were sold to GN as #1070-#1076 (3rd), the GEORGE F. BAKER as #1072 (2nd); the 8th car, the NORMAN W. KITTSON, was sold in July 1945 to the Southern, which rebuilt it to business car #4 (now on the Austin & Texas Central as the BOONESBOROUGH). After the first streamlined EMPIRE BUILDER trainsets were delivered in 1947, these cars were reassigned to secondary trains, including the then-2nd run ORIENTAL LIMITED. With the delivery of the Mid-Century EMPIRE BUILDER, the 1947 cars were reassigned to the new WESTERN STAR, which replaced the ORIENTAL LIMITED, and displaced the 1929 cars. However, on occasion, the 1929 cars would be pulled from other assignments and added to the WESTERN STAR, as seen here, while the newer lightweight cars were being shopped. No longer needed for passenger duty, 2 cars were rebuilt in 1952 to streamlined baggage cars #306-#307, #1073 (3rd) was rebuilt in 1954 to streamlined buffet lounge-parlor observation #1085 (2nd), 2 cars were rebuilt in 1959 to streamlined baggage cars #318-#319, and the last 2 cars were rebuilt in 1963 to streamlined baggage cars #320-#321; the #1072 as #320 (2nd). 3 of the 6 rebuilt baggage cars were later transferred to the BN MofW department, including the #320 (2nd) as #976003. Scanned with an Epson V550 from an original Kodachrome 35mm slide. Exact date is approximate.

Between November 1933 and November 1936, 9 of the 20 cars were rebuilt to Plan #4025 8 section (8S) sleeper-buffet lounge solarium observations (various suffixes); the PLEASANT HILL was the last car to be rebuilt, in November 1936, to the HARVARD CLUB, originally Plan #4025D, changed to Plan variant #4025Q in February 1944. At the 12/31/1948 Pullman divestiture, UP acquired 2 of the Lot #4292, Plan #4025 cars: the HARVARD CLUB and the YALE CLUB, which had been rebuilt in September 1936 from the CASA BLANCA (built for AT&SF); the YALE CLUB was also originally Plan #4025D and changed to #4025Q in December 1943. At the divestiture, both cars were leased to Pullman for operation, and both were withdrawn from said lease in late October 1958. Both were subsequently scrapped in circa 1962. Scanned with an Epson V550 from an original Kodachrome 35mm slide.

CB&Q #94 GENERAL JOHN A. HULEN
Description:
CB&Q modernized heavyweight business car #94 GENERAL JOHN A. HULEN in private ownership. Built by Pullman in December 1915 in Lot #4362 as the Plan #2521B 10 section (10S) sleeper-lounge observation NORTH GATE for the general service pool. Changed to Plan variant #2521E in October 1930 and repainted at that time from Pullman Green to MILW Maroon & Orange. Repainted back to Pullman Green in May 1934. Sold to the Burlington at the 12/31/1948 divestiture as #673 (1st), later renumbered to #640 (2nd). Withheld from lease in October 1949 and subsequently rebuilt in September 1951 to business car #94 (2nd), later to subsidiary FW&D (still as #94) on 4/28/1954, and named GENERAL JOHN A. HULEN at that time. Hulen was the first president (as of 1930) of the Burlington-Rock Island RR, a 50-50 joint-CRI&P/CB&Q (C&S)-owned company in Texas. The #94 later went back to the CB&Q in February 1967, and was sold that same month to Walter Loftin, Jr.-Rail Travel Associates in Arlington, VA. RTA planned to rename the car to VIRGINIA, but based on photographic evidence, that name was never applied. The car was later resold to LEMAC in Wildwood, FL, and later was resold again to a private owner, first in Lakeland, FL, and later in Leesburg, FL, where it was scrapped in the early 2000's. Scanned with an Epson V550 from an original Kodachrome 35mm slide. Exact date is approximate.

C&NW #404
Description:
Built by Pullman in December 1925 in Lot #4923 to Plan #3521A as the 10 section (10S) sleeper-lounge observation MONTE VISO, 1 of 15 such cars built in that Lot; cars were outshopped in November and December. 4 of these cars, including the MONTE VISO, were built for the CAPITOL LIMITED; the other 11 cars were built for the general service pool. In January and February 1926, these 4 brand new cars received CAPITOL-series names; the MONTE VISO was renamed CAPITOL ROAD. The CAPITOL ROAD was sold to the C&NW on 12/7/1948, only three and a half weeks before the Pullman divestiture, which occurred on December 31st. C&NW rebuilt the CAPITOL ROAD to a business car as #400 (2nd), with 2 double-occupancy staterooms and a secretary's room. The rebuild was likely finished in 1949, and the #400 (2nd) was assigned to the company president. In 1981, the #400 (2nd) was renumbered to #401 (3rd), and was renumbered again in 1982 to #404 (3rd). In either 1985 or 1986, the name WYOMING was applied to the car, and several years later, the kitchen end was damaged by a fire, which was caused by a fuel leak. This fire occurred at Norfolk, Nebraska, and the WYOMING was returned to Chicago via a freight train. C&NW assessed the damage and the decision was made not to make repairs. As a result, the WYOMING was sold in 1991 to Ralph Justen, who renamed the car WISCONSIN, and it was used for specials and charters on the Great Lakes Western. Ralph later sold the car to a private owner, who renamed it CAROLYN. In 2014, the Valley Railroad acquired the CAROLYN as VRRX #400, and in mid-April 2015, it was moved to Essex, CT, via Willard, OH, and Cumberland, MD. Regarding the other 14 cars built in this Lot: at the divestiture, only 2 cars were sold and leased to Pullman: MONTE CARLO was sold to GS&F and MONTE ROSA was sold to CofG. The other 12 cars were retained by Pullman until sold to several roads or to scrap dealers. The CAPITOL ROAD is one of five cars from this Lot which are extant; the other 4 survivors are: MONTE BALDO was sold in 1965 to the Circus World Museum in Baraboo, WI, and the museum renamed/numbered the car as #46 THE BARABOO; MONTE CRISTO was sold in 1954 to CGW, which rebuilt it as business car #100, it was later KCS TOLMAK, and is now #99 NEW ORLEANS; MONTE LEONE was sold in 1954 to SP, which rebuilt it to business car #110 LOS ANGELES (1st), it was sold in 1977 to FCP, in the early 2000's it was acquired by a private owner, and is now stored at Gateway Rail; finally, the MONTE ROSA, as owned by CofG, was leased to Pullman until November 1949, and afterwards was modified to an instruction car with the name PROGRESS, it was later sold to Robert Snow and located at his Church Street Station in Orlando, and in 2012 it was moved with the other Church Street equipment to the Florida RR Museum in Parrish. Scanned with an Epson V550 from an original Kodachrome 35mm slide.

Built by Pullman in December 1929 in Lot #6289 to Plan #3992 as 13 seat parlor-buffet (kitchen)-12 seat dinette (2 4-seat tables and 2 2-seat tables)-16 seat lounge LAMBS CLUB, 1 of 7 such cars built in that Lot for the PRR; all cars were outshopped in December 1929. These cars later had the floor arrangement altered several times, each time resulting in a new suffix to the original Plan: #3992B, #3992C, #3992E, #3992F, etc. Between August and October 1943, these cars were changed to Plan #3992G, with a 12 seat parlor, kitchen, 24 seat dinette (6 4-seat tables) and 14 seat lounge. Besides the ENGINEERS CLUB, which was destroyed by fire at Philadelphia's Broad Street Station in September 1943, the remaining 6 cars were sold on 12/31/45 to PRR as #7005-#7008 and #7011-#7012; the LAMBS CLUB as #7007. All 6 cars were withdrawn from Pullman lease in October 1956, and 3 cars were subsequently transferred to the MofW department; the #7007 as #492061. The car was later sold to the Midwest RY Historical Foundation, the equipment-owning arm of the Midwest Chapter NRHS. After the split from the Chapter, MRHF became the Midwest RY Preservation Society. At least one other car from this Lot is known to be extant: #7012 ROTARY CLUB, later MofW #27280, is now located in Berea, OH, as the BEREAN. Scanned with an Epson V550 from an original 35mm slide, brand is unknown.
