<P>Nearly all of the cars owned by Railroad Passenger Cars, Inc., including the former B&O parlor obs "Hooper," were donated to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Museum sometime around 1998. Following the donation, RRP dissolved itself.<p>The company had been founded to maintain a pool of cars for mainline excursions; following the drying up of excursions in the East after the great insurance crisis, RRP elected to dissolve itslef, its chief reason for existance having become moot.<p>You can see the Hooper any time you like in the back yard of the B&O RRM, behind the roundhouse.<br> eledbetter@rypn.org |
