LIRR 2937 - Long Island RR |
| Description: |
Although a long distance from its original home in Long Island, NY, this coach car now found a new life as one of the tourist train coaches at the Hooiser Valley RR Musem. Not too surprising to see it here as other LIRR coaches are literally spread throughout the United States! |

USAX Troop Sleeper #7256 |
| Description: |
One of the display cars at the Hooiser Valley RR museum is US Army troop sleeper #7256. These sleepers were built by Pullman-Standard based on 50 foot boxcars. Each car would sleep 29 troopers and came with a Pullman porter in charge of accommodations. Minimal lighting and ventilation meant the cars were dark and stuffy. |

USAX Troop Sleeper #7256 |
| Description: |
Here is another view of the 3 tier bedding that would have filled the car while serving as a troop sleeper during WW II. Built by Pullman-Standard from 50' boxcars, they were dark and lacked much ventilation but they got the job done in transporting our servicemen. |

Not much has been done with this iconic Chicago, South Shore & South Bend interurban passenger car since it landed here at the Hoosier Valley RR Museum. I hope it is on the docket for restoration before it's too late! |

HVRM coach - Hoosier Valley RR Museum |
| Description: |
Not sure of the identity of this passenger coach car - possibly Pennsylvania RR - but it was found behind the shops area at the Hoosier Valley RR Museum. Looks to be in fairly good shape from the outside at least. |
