Standard Gauge
Baggage
Sleeps 6
Office

Built by Pullman Company in 1911 for the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, and was nicknamed Vicker. It was rebuilt for the Atomic Energy Commission and was used at Oak Ridge National Laboratories. These rail cars hauled nuclear equipment as well as living quarters for the guards. They would travel from Tennessee to other AEC destinations such as ones in Colorado and New Mexico. This car was renumbered to 42326 when it was done serving the AEC and was used as living quarters for the wrecker crew in Kentucky. In 1991, CSX donated this dormitory to the West Florida Railroad Museum, where it is on display today.
