Description: |
Former Philadelphia & Reading Railway Osgood-Bradley coach 910 on static display, awaiting future restoration work at the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum. This car has a long history starting with its construction in 1902 for the P&R. Purchased by the Belfast & Moosehead Lake Railroad in 1926, this car was moved to Maine for service between Belfast and Burnham Junction as BML 11. Acquired in 1960 by the Black River & Western Railroad of New Jersey, it was renumbered 104 and put to work on excursions runs, first test runs on the CNJ branch at Chester, and later weekend passenger trips over BR&W's current line between Ringoes and Flemington. Retired with the Black River's upgrade to a steel coach fleet, 104 was sold to the Yankee Silversmith Inn in 1970 and moved to Wallingford, CT for use as a dining room. In became part of the CERM collection in 2008 and was moved to the Willimantic site in 2009. |
