Hi to all

Well its with great excitement and caution that we feel we now have the Gates sleeping car Co / Wagner palace car Co 10 section drawing room sleeping car 'OMAHA' dating from 1866 !! If this is the case, and more careful work using the 3003 Pullman floor plan will be conducted, we have a car that pre dates Cheyenne itself !!
This will be a truly astounding discovery and we will have to start a vigorous fund raising campaign to save her and move her to the Car 57 project site. The owners will have to be appraoched and we will see whether a new workshop in its place would persuade them to allow this car to go.
