SLRG #9180 COUNTRY CLUB |
| Description: |
Built in 1929 by Pullman in Lot #6274 to Plan #3989A as 8S sleeper-buffet solarium lounge observation COUNTRY CLUB, 1 of 15 such cars built in that Lot. 10 of the 15 cars (including the COUNTRY CLUB) were built for the PRR, 3 cars were built for the Erie, and 2 cars were built for the Rock Island. In May 1940, the COUNTRY CLUB was renamed to ANTHRACITE CLUB. In December 1941 and January 1942, 6 of the PRR cars were changed to Plan #3989U, including the ANTHRACITE CLUB. At the 12/31/1948 Pullman divestiture, PRR acquired their 10 cars from this Lot (as #8620-#8629), the 3 cars built for the Erie were acquired by the B&O, and the 2 cars built for the CRI&P were acquired by the SP&S. In 1957-1958, PRR withdrew these 10 cars from revenue service, and 9 of the 10 were subsequently converted to MofW bunk cars; the ANTHRACITE CLUB as #492383. The car was later sold to private ownership as PAPX #492383, and was listed for sale on Ozark Mountain Railcar in circa 2009. It was subsequently acquired by Iowa Pacific as the COUNTRY CLUB. Besides the COUNTRY CLUB, there are 3 other PRR cars from this Lot which are known to be extant: #8629 UNIVERSITY CLUB is also owned by Iowa Pacific as SLRG #9170, #8627 TRAFFIC CLUB was formerly owned by George Hart and is currently stored in Jim Thorpe, PA, and #8628 UNION LEAGUE CLUB is owned by the Horseshoe Curve Chapter NRHS and located at the Railroader's Memorial Museum in Altoona. EXIF: 2:51 PM, f/3.7 @ 1/800, ISO-100 |
