A few days ago when providing information about some Pullman cars the name of Jack Ferris was noted. He purchased a number of Pullman cars in the early and mid 1960s. What ever happened to these cars?

Glen Alta is currently stored at the Illinois Railway Museum; it is in circus train colors, and I believe it may be available for sale or trade but I'm not absolutely certain.

Some years ago, the Nightstar was with equipment owned or at least stored at the Lakeshore Chapter of the NRHS at Northeast, PA. Don't know whatever happened to the car, after that.

Travel Club has been part of a theme restaurant, Back 40 Junction, in Decatur, IN for many years.

Jack also owned a 10 section, observation lounge, Capitol Heights. I believe the car went to Royal American Shows.
