Re: Longe car interior - Altamont SP 2475 excursion Jan
Author: DWDebs/2472

The lounge car interior is nearly identical to S.P. 2979 (the only preserved S.P. heavyweight lounge car, restored by GGRM & operating on Niles canyon Railway). But in this photo, the etched-glass partition in front of the bar has S.P. "tracks-into-the-sunset" logos, whereas S.P. 2979 has etched images of martini glasses instead.

I was on this train, but at age 4 I was much more interested in the locomotive than what they were serving at the bar!
