#800143 IMPERIAL SANDS |
| Description: |
Built in 1942 by P-S in Lot #6668 to Plan #4069H as 4DB-4C-2DR sleeper IMPERIAL SANDS, 1 of 31 such cars built in that Lot, which was ordered in April 1941; cars were delivered between March and April 1942. 18 of the cars were built for the OVERLAND pool with IMPERIAL-series names, 11 of the cars were built for the GOLDEN STATE with GOLDEN-series names, and 2 cars were built for the PANAMA LIMITED. The 18 cars built for the OVERLAND pool were sold on 12/31/1945 to joint ownership of the UP, SP, and C&NW. This joint ownership arrangement lasted until 1947, when 12 of the cars, including the IMPERIAL SANDS, were sold to UP, 2 cars were sold to SP, and 4 cars were sold to C&NW. The IMPERIAL SANDS was retired in October 1969 and sold to William W. Kratville's Autoliner Corporation, which resold the car to Dick Reynolds as Great Western Tours #201. The IMPERIAL SANDS was later acquired by Classic Rail Cars and moved to the Morristown & Erie. Scanned with an Epson V550 from an original Kodachrome 35mm slide. |
