  1. Karl Brand says:

    Plan 2410F, 12 sections-1 drawing room, Lot 4525, Blt Sept/Oct 1917. Leased to Pullman by the Frisco 12/48; withdrawn from lease 11/49, became SLSF coach 1804; returned to Pullman lease 2/51; withdrawn from lease and scrapped 5/60

  2. Tom Galbraith says:

    This car was used on the Memphis-Pensacola run before the Frisco homebuilt sleeper-buffet cars went into service. They used this car along with a buffet car. (or diner I don’t recall which??)

    Karl and Tom,
    What postwar passenger trains would have still been using 12-1 sleepers? See also http://frisco.org/mainline/2018/01/28/pullman-sleeper-car-whipple/

    An open-section Pullman seems a bit anachronistic for 1948-1949.

    Best Regards,
