CBQ Buffet/lounge #500 - "Effie Dean" |
Description: |
The buffet/lounge car "Effie Dean" has no connection to the original Mark Twain Zephyr but instead was part of the Pioneer Zephyr and had no name. Through a weird twist of fate when the Pioneer Zephyr was donated to the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, they only had room for 3 of the 4 cars. Hence, this car was abandoned. It was eventually sold off with the four original cars of the Mark Twain Zephyr. Now it has become part of that trainset in Wisconsin! |

CBQ Buffet/lounge #500 - "Effie Dean" |
Description: |
Although the original car was not given a name while it was in the Pioneer Zephyr trainset, it now carries the name "Effie Dean". Not sure the origin of the name - could be connected to the Budd Company designers. Does anyone know the significance of the name? |

CBQ Buffet/lounge #500 - "Effie Dean" |
Description: |
The renovation plan for this additional car is to convert it from the original buffet/lounge car into a tavern/lounge car similar to one in the Denver Zephy. It would be more lounge than coach approach to the car. |
