PASSENGER CAR PHOTO INDEX - GREAT NORTHERN
UPDATED WITH 60 NEW LINKS ADDED.
I cannot promise you that all links will remain working since I have no control over this. I will say, though, that if a link isn't working I will see about it (and if possible, report it to the owner of the site), and if necessary, remove it from future updates (regretably there have been a few significant sites lost recently so some photo links have been removed). To email me about a "broken" link just CLICK HERE.
If you are looking for information and/or photos of Vista Dome cars the single best source for on the web for this is the Web Lurker's DOMEmain site. Because of the extensive collection of images on that site I have not made an effort to catalog it but if you would like to visit just click on the dome car drawing below.
Also see Burlington Route and Spokane Portland & Seattle listings for cars owned by those roads that were used in interline service.
And visit the Great Northern Empire site, which has extensive information and a large number of photos of surviving GN equipment. I highly recommend visiting this site if you are looking for information on equipment for this line.
