AMTK 2023 |
| Description: |
Amtrak Slumbercoach 2023, named SILVER REPOSE, at about 18th Street in Chicago, Illinois on an unknown day in November 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 2023 was built by Budd in 1955 on Job 9691-169 as CB&Q 4903, named SILVER REPOSE. Inside were 24 single bedrooms and eight double bedrooms. The CB&Q recieved four Slumbercoaches (#'s 4900-4903) delivered during October and November 1956. The NP and B&O also had Budd Slumbercoaches. I rode in one Slumbercoach on the Denver Zephyr during August 1964, and I can attest the that single bedrooms were compact. Although each single bedroom had a toilet, it was covered at night once the bed was lowered. If you required the toilet during the evening, you had to open the door, step into the hallway, raise the bed, do your business, get back into the hallway and lower the bed. Not a problem for me as I was 16 at the time and my bladder was young. |
