  • Owners: Western Pacific 302
  • Current Condition: This car had a fire on the interior just prior to the being acquired by the Museum. It needs work, but the exterior could be made presentable without a lot of effort.
  • Proposed Future Treatment: In the near future this car should get window sash, steps and exterior paint. The restoration of the interior is a future project.
