Built
in 1906 by the Pullman Company, this car is typical of the passenger cars
that served Boulder County for the first half of the 20th century.
The Colorado & Southern was Boulder County's main railroad, its tracks
through the county remain today as the Burlington Northern Santa Fe.
Coach #543 was in service until 1949, when it was converted to a kitchen
car for work train service and numbered 99092. It is being restored
to its kitchen car appearance. |
