    The usual fine variety. Russell, can you tell us about that dome/lounge car? Looks very interesting.

    It belongs to a very good friend of mine. It is a former Union Pacific dome/lounge built by ACF that was modified in the 1990s with the open platform. He charters it out along with a sleeping car. Sometimes when he has a dead-head move I "volunteer" to ride on them to keep an eye on them for him. ;) And of course bring friends and family along for the ride. I posted an album in Railimages about the recent trip.

    Russell, wow, the interior of that car is as impressive as the exterior. I envy your volunteering on it.
