Ex-GN Red River is at Houston Union Station.
I believe this car was remodeled in the 80's.

Great looking office car. Thanks for posting.

Been aboard it, nice car

Looks like the kitchen-end steam line wasn’t properly disconnected before the car was uncoupled.

Thank for posting these.  I always enjoy your passenger car posts, especially the ones with multiple detail shots of the same car.

What a great way to travel.

Hard to tell just what that piece of pipe is doing there. I don't believe it is part of the car, rather something associated with
providing steam from the depot. In any event there's no steam going to the car since there's nothing connected on the 
'A' end either.

Great photos.  Thanks for sharing.  With those trucks it must have been a sweet riding car!
