Nostalgia & History > Let's go for a ride on the Union Pacific car #308!Date: 08/04/22 14:16 Let's go for a ride on the Union Pacific car #308! Author: jtwlunch Scan from the Gibson collection, no date, location, or photographer noted of UP open air coach/observation number 308. Who wants to ride this one now and meet an 18 wheeler driver? Would be a fun car to ride on a scenic line. Anybody out there who can fill in some details?
