Built by Budd as a 59 seat long-distance coach in November 1981 and numbered 25008. The single seat was located near the the accessible restroom in the vestibule end of the car for use by a physically challenged passenger. The single seat has since been removed and a normal double-seat is now available and today these cars are equipped with a total of 58 seats.
