CNJ 1201 "Jersey Coast" - Central RR of New Jersey |
| Description: |
Nice color slide taken by WM J. Madden of the CNJ coach car "Jersey Coast". According to the Whippany RR Museum where this car now resides, it was built by Bethlehem Shipbuilding in 1927. The car sported a mahogany interior. Eventually it was retired in 1972 and purchased by a Morris County businessman who converted it into a private stationary lodging, seen here. He did alter the basic car by adding a railed-in open observation platform but finally put it in storage where it was vandalized and deteriorated. The Whippany RR Museum bought the stored car in 1994 and restored it back into the three color Blue Comet paint scheme (Jersey Cream, Packard Blue and Royal Blue) although this particular car never ran on the Blue Comet. Similar cars built the same did however run on the crack Blue Comet in its heyday. |
