This was taken on the ACL at the ACL depot in the "Dixie" section of Dothan. The depot can be seen above the 5th and 6th car from the rear. I worked in that station in 1977 & 1978.

This is Pullman's GEORGE M. PULLMAN 3 Double Bedroom - 1 Drawing Room - lounge observation car. Constructed from aluminum, it was a one of a kind and a great catch!!!
