Hi Charlie,

 

I think that St.Paul Club and Lincoln Club (along with Omaha Club) were owned by the railroad from the time they were built, and consequently do not appear in the Pullman Project. Minneapolis Club, Minnesota Club, Minnekahda Club, Happy Hollow Club and Lancaster Club were owned by Pullman until it was broken up. According to Robert Wayner's roster, Minnesota Club and Minnekahda (later Minikahda) Club were sold to the NYNH&H when Pullman was broken up.

Minneapolis Club (by that time rebuilt to Lago Manso) is shown has having gone to the NYC. Happy Hollow Club and Lancaster Club were apparently sold to the Q.

 

Best regards,

For some reason Minneapolis Club shows up in the Pullman Project but St Paul Club and Lincoln Club do not

Will have to do more research in the Glick books and other references.

Got curious to see what was said about the cars in the book The Complete Roster of Heavyweight Pullman Cars by Warner and it says that Minnekahda Club and and Minnesota Club were built for the Blackhawk while Happy Hollow and Lancaster Club was built for the Night Hawk.  Not sure how the Ak-Sar-Ben lettering played into this.
