Folks,

Several years ago a private person took on the restoration of a circa 1890 Pullman built
wooden Passenger car that he found in I think Bellows falls, Vermont.

He wrote a multi-part article about repairing/ restoring the wooden car.
As I recall the story the owner was hoping that it could go to a place that would use it.

I wonder if he ever gave it to a museum; sold the car or whatever?

Thaanks,

Ted Miles

The gentleman was David Woodbury, and the coach, B&M 1246, is now on display at a depot museum somewhere in New England, unfortunately out side exposed to the elements. I'll be damned if I can find the last thread about it, though.

Here is the article.

That's the article where David makes the offer. The car finally wound up in Contoocook, NH. Here's a recent video:
