The D&SNG is going green!

The D&SNG is going green! Pullman Green.

Over the next six months, a total of four cars, three passenger cars and one mail-baggage car from the 1880’s will be painted to represent a 1930’s-40’s era scheme. This set of cars will make their debut behind locomotive 315 at this year’s 12th Annual Railfest in August. The green coaches will be further featured in a series of Photo Specials and private charter trains throughout the fall of 2010 and winter of 2011. The cars will stay green for a period of 12 months. Private charter operators looking for a period train representing those decades are encouraged to contact the railroad for more information.

This will be the first time that an entire train-set of cars has been back-dated. The cars will not run on regularly scheduled trains. The D&SNG will post schedules for these events in the coming weeks. Early reservations are highly recommended as these trips are expected to sell out quickly.
