Unfortunately years ago while 346 was running at the museum it set the inside of the bunk car on fire. By the time it was put out the interior was pretty well toast. When it was later moved down to the shop to address if it could be salvaged the decision was made that it was too far gone and management at the time decided to dismantle the car. What could be saved and reused elsewhere was.
