I picked up my dad at Utica station tonight (1.5hrs late thanks alot). Is
64 ever on time? As we were walking over the bridge he noticed this
old car on the back of 283 as it was leaving the station on 2. It caught
me as a suprise and since the light was going away and we were viewing it from above, I didn't get to really see it. Anybody know what it was?
It did have a vestibule and markers on the sides but thats all I saw.
Thanks

0-6-0,

The car you saw was the privately-owned Pullman car Federal on its way to Niagara Falls.

Until later,
Chris
