Bush Funeral car
Author: Bob3985

Some time back in my life I took an Athearn observation car and painted it in the two tone gray paint scheme of Union Pacific. Inside I placed a casket draped in white cloth with a Preacher and mourners in the rear portion of the carnwith a trainman on the back platform. The platform was decorated with black bunting. So over the years with the Sherman Hill Club I would run this car as a special tribute to those whom I knew and had passed. If our model railroad was set back up in the mall I would let a member who owned a model of the UP's 1943 and or 4141 pull the car in honor of the late President George H.W. Bush's memory.

I had the honor of serving in his administration. He was a great and humble gentleman...
