This was installed on Tuesday in Moberly's Depot park. Its apparently the MILW car INDIANA.

Well, better than scrap. The car was listed for a long time on Ozark Mountain Railcar and the interior of the car (in photos) was gorgeous (though not doubt worn) and appeared to be largely original (an least in style when compared to another MILW business car in preservation (999 at Nevada City Montana).

Was surprised this didn't get snatched up by the 261 folks, but suspect that Amtrak compatibility would have been a problem.
