Former Canadian National heavyweight sleeper which was rebuilt
into a smooth-side, arrived on the Valley Railroad today, via
Providence & Worcester Train NR-2, through Saybrook Jct., in
Old Saybrook, CT.

Here are some photos I took of the arrival.

Enjoy,

What's it for? Dinner train maybe

I'm not sure, Gary. It's an old heavyweight that's been
rebuilt. Parts, maybe. The trucks appear to be in very
good condition. It had been used as a bunk car,and has
sleeping/cooking/eating/lounge facilities inside. Time
will tell.

BTW, Hand on the Throttle was operating yesterday, so several
would-be engineers got a look as we pulled into Essex from
Old Saybrook.
