Chicago Surface Lines #144
Title:  Chicago Surface Lines #144
Description:  Built in 1908 by Pullman. The following is from a display on the car: Chicago Railways operated 575 miles of streetcar lines, primarily in the Loop and on the North and West sides. In 1914, it joined with the smaller Calumet & South Chicago Railway, the Chicago City Railway, and the Southern Street Railway to form the consolidated Chicago Surface Lines system. CSL operated all streetcars until 1947, when the CTA assumed control. This larger double-ended wooden pay-as-you-enter car was built as Chicago Railways 144. In its classic red-and-yellow paint, it is representative of 600 such Big Pullman cars operated throughout CSLs system. CSL (and later CTA) 144 continued in service until the end of streetcar operations, and was retired by the CTA in 1958. IRM purchased the car from the CTA in 1958, and restored it to operation.

Illinois Central #2804
Title:  Illinois Central #2804
Description:  The Following is from a display on the car: Modernized Heavyweight Coach Coach 2804 was originally built in 1926 by the Pullman Car Company of Chicago. As built it had 32 cloth bench seats inside, sliding windows and the typical clerestory ceiling and roof. This car served the Illinois Central railroad for many years in its original configuration. Beginning in the late 1930s, newly designed lightweight streamlined passenger cars were being bought by the hundreds by many railroads to modernize their fleets for operation on their most prestigious trains. The older heavyweight cars that had been purchased in large numbers by the railroads between 1910 and the early 1930s did out suddenly become obsolete. Many continued to operate through the late 1960s and large numbers of them were rebuilt to fit in with the newer equipment. IC coach 2804 was one of many cars rebuilt and represents one form of modernization. The exterior was not greatly altered although sealed windows were installed. The interior, however, was completely rebuilt so that its passenger accommodations were virtually identical to that of new streamlined equipment. Seating was changed to individual high backed reclining seats. New lighting and air condition were installed thus covering the clerestory and making the ceiling flat. Light green and cream colored paints were applied on the seating areas and bathrooms. After rebuilding the Illinois Central used the coach on their Chicago-to-New Orleans train the Panama Limited, operating it with many other modernized heavyweight cars. Today IC 2804 has been restored in many ways, and operates as part of a train on our mainline in cooler weather. We are hoping to repair the air conditioning system in the future to allow use during summer operations.

Bessemer & Lake Erie #25
Title:  Bessemer & Lake Erie #25
Description:  Built in 1925 by Pressed Steel Car Company. The following is from a display on the car: "A combine (short for combination) provides both passenger seating and space for baggage or express freight. The B&LE operated a 160-mile north-south route between Bessemer (near Pittsburgh) and Erie, Pennsylvania. Most of B&LEs traffic was ore, steel and heavy freight for its owner, U.S. Steel, with only limited passenger service. B&LE had less than two dozen modern steel cars in its passenger fleet. Combine 25 was one of the last two cars still in service when B&LE ended passenger operations in the late 1950s. The car was sold to the Elgin, Joliet & Eastern in 1960, which removed most of its seats and baggage racks and used it as a tool car for its wreck train. EJ&E donated the car to IRM in 1984. Restoration began in 1986, and the car returned to service at IRM in 1996."
