Nostalgia & History > A troop sleeper near ChicagoDate: 01/15/22 12:36 A troop sleeper near Chicago Author: gcm Dec 80
Always nice to see one of the Pullman built WWII troop sleepers (especially with the original trucks). This was a Norfolk&Western one. Gary Date: 01/15/22 14:25 Re: A troop sleeper near Chicago Author: refarkas Great uncommonly-seen catch.
