Regarding Pullman 470 (previously Outfit Car #0252):
The Colorado Springs branch of the Friends of the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad has been restoring this car at the Pikes Peak Historical Street Railway Foundation & Museum in the Springs .
To document their progress, they’ve got a blog at:

friendsofthectsrrcos.blogspot.com]
As is normal for a project like this, they’re looking for more information in addition to that available from the Illinois Railway Museum and the '1888 Car Builder's Cyclopedia' referenced by Brian Norden and Jeff Ramsey, respectively.
Again, if you have drawings, pictures, or other items pertinent to the Car 470 restoration, please contact John Engs of the Friends at
jengs@engsventures.com, or Tom Simco (also of the Friends) at
htjsm3@centurylink.net.
Thanks for your help.
