Passenger - Coach

 

PRR #4244


 

85' Smooth-Side Coach Car - part of the PRR's "Fleet of Modernism".  In the 1930’s lighter weight materials allowed for the development and production of a variety of coach, baggage, and observation cars as railroads ushered in the beginning of the streamline era.  Materials like stainless steel, and aluminum, allowed for passenger cars to have smooth or fluted sides and smooth roof lines.
