The lanterns make a nice touch of the Kitche Gammi Club carrying the markers of the Capitol, westbound at Shenandoah Junction, WV, last night.

Don't I remember that as a NKP car back when I was a teen-ager in Cleveland in the late 1930s?

Yes. Rebuilt from 10 Section observation MOUNTAIN VIEW in September 1937 and assigned to the NKP in June 1939. It transferred to NKP ownership on 12/31/48 as part of the Pullman divestiture and was immediately leased back to Pullman for operation. Didn't stay leased for very long, the NKP withdrew it in April 1949 and coonverted it to Business Car #7. Its twin, CARLETON CLUB, followed the same path and became Business Car #6.
