It looks like a shorty baggage car to me, not a B unit. I believe that location is the closed former Santa Fe Albuquerque shops, but I have no idea why that equipment is there.

Was looking through photos on rrpicturearchives when I came across this. http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPi ... id=5107952 The point of the picture is ATSF caboose 2018 (the caboose once displayed with 2926 during her days at Coronado Park), but coupled to it are a troop sleeper and a B unit What's the history behind these 2 pieces of equipment? |

That's not a troop sleeper. It's a troop kitchen car. A sleeper has a lot more windows. |

Both my photos. I believe all three pieces are a part of the Wheels Museum collection. http://wheelsmuseum.org/ |
