Silver Fountain was owned by three private individuals here in Cincinnati who had planned on restoring it. They have been trying to sell it for some time. Glad to hear it found a home. Tom Mack Cincinnati, OH ---In CBQ@yahoogroups.com, <rainierrails@...> wrote : Group, It was posted yesterday (Wednesday) morning over on the Passenger Car List by Andy Harman that prewar (1940) Budd-built diner parlor observation #303 Silver Fountain is being moved on a flatcar from the Cincinnati area (specifically Newtown) down to Stearns, KY, for restoration. While the current owner isn't identified, it is listed in W. David Randall's "Streamliner Cars Volume Two: The Budd Company" as sold to the G.A. Avril Company in 1968. The Silver Fountain was 1 of 2 such cars built in 1940 (the other was #302 Silver Hours) with 24 dining seats and 22 parlor chairs; both cars were ordered in February and delivered in June. The Silver Fountain was built in Lot #96120 and the Silver Hours was built in Lot #96117. On the BRHS website, both cars are listed as built for the general pool, and that the Silver Hours was transferred to the Sam Houston Zephyr in 1944. Randall lists that the Silver Hours was sold in 1968 to the South Texas RHS, and it is now in the collection of the Galveston RR Museum. __._,_.___ Posted by: thommack@yahoo.com __,_._,___ |
