PPCX 800588 - Dome Lounge "Northern Sky"
Title:  PPCX 800588 - Dome Lounge "Northern Sky"
Description:  Northern Sky Charters' Dome Lounge "Northern Sky" will be our ride back to Kansas City on the AAPRCO Excursion. This car was built as UP 9003 in February 1955. It went to Auto Train in 1973 as AUT 903. After they went out of business, it passed to private ownership in 1981, Northern Railcar Corporation in 1988, and current owner David Hoffman, our car host today, in 1992. I would like to thank Dave for the hospitality, lunch, and the ride, and I would like to thank Tom Soumas for setting it up for us.

Title:  #800588 NORTHERN SKY
Description:  Built in 1955 by AC&F in Lot #4096 as UP dome 37 seat club lounge blunt end observation #9003, 1 of 15 such cars (#9000-#9014) built in that Lot, which was ordered in November 1952; cars were delivered between February and April 1955, the blunt ends were removed in 1956, and lounge seating at that time was reduced by 3. These 15 cars were assigned to 3 different trains, with 5 cars each: the CITY OF LOS ANGELES (#9000-#9004), the CITY OF PORTLAND (#9005-#9009), and the CITY OF ST. LOUIS (#9010-#9014). In 1972, UP sold 14 of these cars to the Auto Train Corporation, #9004 was retained by UP. In 1973, 12 of these cars were outshopped as #9xx-series dome lounge 44 seat coaches, and 2 were outshopped as #54x-series dome 36 seat lounges. After being sold in 1981, the #9003/#903 went through a series of private owners until being acquired by Dave Hoffman in 1992.
