[PRCo] Re: Mod PAT Train

[Bob Rathke]

In addition to RDC's, the PATrain used four ex-C&O Ry. long-distance coaches 
(reclining seats, murals on the walls, etc.).  Each was painted a different 
color, but white was the common color each car.  I recall that the colors 
were orange, yellow, red and green.  The coaches were numbered in the low 
1600's which was the original C&O number series.

I took numerous photos of these cars - including the interiors - when they 
operated.  For an exterior and an interior view of these coaches, see:
