"Royal Street" Visits Chicago...
Author: aussiehinz

On the tail end of Saturday's arriving Train #58, the "City of New Orleans."  PV "Pacific Union" was also a part of the classy consist, shot from the "MH" Tower steps.

Cheers,

Was Royal Street originally built for the Crescent Limited?

Car was built for the L&N.  Was used on Washing-Florida trains and also on the Gulf Wind from Florida to New Orleans.  Was once out shopped at the Pullman facilities in St. Louis.  I bought it in derelict condition in Janesville, Wisconsin.  Dr. Jim Giganti did a fantastic job of restoring it.
