Sir, Your Private Rail Car Awaits You


And here I thought private rail cars went the way of roll-up desks and spats. The Washington Post did a nice piece about the last remaining private rail cars in America. Particularly about Chuck Jensen and his prized “Kitchi Gammi Club” (http://www.virginiarail.com/)


It’s heartening to know that some irreplaceable pieces of Americana are not just preserved and put on display, but actually put to use.
