QNS&L business car 451 (ex-C&O 3 Lynnewood)

Some additions to this post from October 2019 The Safari heads south
Business car Lynnewood sure looked rough in 2019!
I was fortunate to have spent several days aboard that car on the QNS&L from Sept-Iles, QC to Labrador City, NL back in March 1981 while on a fact finding mission for a CN project I was working on.
Years later in November 2005 I photographed the car on static display at the VIA Rail station in Amqui, QC while on another railway related business trip.

Hi Dan,
I'll have to dig further into my photo files but I didn't shoot a lot of rolling stock when I was working with these railroads (unless it was MoW Work Equipment)
Here's a pic I took on October 27, 2005 in Sept-Iles, QC of a QNS&L passenger dome car. Unfortunately, back then I had the camera set on 'small' to cram as many picks into it as possible. :-(

According to the 2022 Edition of Canadian Trackside Guide, QNS&L 13510 dome/coach is now on the Tshiuetin Rail Transportation Inc. roster.
This could have changed in the past two years.

Thank you for the update on former Wabash Dome Coach that had been with the QNSL. 

I am happy to learn that the dome car may be still intact.  I have searched the QNS&L web site, in the past, for a clue to its status but came away frustrated, so this is good to see, even it it is 2022.
