Notes:
While once steeped in controversy and rumor, the former hot tub car
for the scuttled Marlboro Unlimited tour train got a new lease on life
over the winter. The car is in the shop right now being converted into
a business/demonstrator car, complete with platform, sleeper section
and lounge. I don't have any more details right now, and a timetable
for completion hasn't been set yet thanks to the volume of work being
done at present. But check back for updates, which I will post as they
develop.
When I
visited, the exterior had been skinned, and the interior stripped of
its former Spa hardware. The car will retain its above average height.
For historical
purposes, I've retained the former Spa car roster page, which can be
accessed here.
