Save for the furniture, very little has changed to the interior.

Anyone got a spare $100,000 layin' around ?

At this time, there are a few diners for sale. So this might be on the market for a while.That might bring the price down. I'll wait and watch. At least at this price, the car, I hope will have a future

AIR, the ELDCPS was fortunate to find and acquire sister car #470 a few years ago. Like #469, it was also in very good condition and after some normal operating and interior refurbishing it will be repainted back into the m/g/y.

Along with the two still in service Phoebe T-L cars on MetroNorth and these two diners, it's amazing how they've been preserved 40+ years after Miss Phoebe made her final run.

BTW, the price tag may be too steep for the ELDCPS but hoping the Morristown & Erie might be able to acquire #469 and be added to it's varied fleet of coaches.
