Question for the groups who have the early Pullman Troop Sleepers.

Are the side and end doors on your cars steel over wood or steel frame?

I am specifying early cars since ours has wood window sashes and things the earliest cars had vs the second run.

Thanks
Bill

Do you know the original number on your car? Ours are 8367 and 9398 which make them the later cars. Both have steel door frames. The doors themselves are wood with steel sheathing over them.

7118. Our end doors are steel over wood. Side doors are long gone.
