819 and the Clintons
Author: WrongWayMurphy

The year was 1986 and Bill was the gov of Arkansas.  This was during a trip from
Pine Bluff to Little Rock, and was taken in LR.

Hillary actually rode in SP car #99 "Houston" from Pine Bluff - Little Rock on this same day.
Bill met her in LR and took a short ride across town in #99 with his wife. No cab ride for Bill.

Photo if this car by RJ McKay is attached.  This car was built in 1926 as a very fancy  
business car for the Espee (T&NO).

There is a photograph in the Union Pacific Museum archives of Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton ringing a bell mounted on a speaker's platform at the dedication ceremonies for the opening of the then new Jenks Shop in North Little Rock.
