Title:  AMTK 8332 (Ex PC 4553, ne NYC 453, to AMTK 8514, then AMTK 8555)
Description:  Amtrak diner-tavern 8332 was originally one of eighteen 44-seat dining cars built by Budd in 1948 as New York Central 450-467. This car was originally 453 and then Penn Central 4553. Five of the cars were retired before the PC merger in 1968, but the remaining 13 cars went into the PC 4550-4566 series. Amtrak purchased 10 of the cars in 1973 and remodeled them with a 20-seat lounge and 24 dining seats as the 8330-8339. The 8332 became HERITAGE FLEET diner 8514 and then diner-grill 8555.
