Title: |
AMTK 5263 |
Description: |
Fifty-two seat coach 5263 was manufactured by Pullman-Standard in 1950 as Chesapeake & Ohio 1668. It was one of 67 coaches built under PS Lot No. 6856 as a part of the C&O’s large 1946 order from streamlined cars. Eight of the cars were sold to the Rio Grande before they were completed, and 59 were delivered as C&O 1610-1668. Ten of the C&O coaches were sold to the Seaboard Air Line in 1958 where they became SAL 6242-6251, and they were subsequently Seaboard Coast Line and then Amtrak 5254-5263. Nine other cars went directly from the C&O to Amtrak as the 8410-8411 and 5237-5243. The 5263 wore the same number on the SCL, and was previously SAL 6251. (approximate month) |
