Any word what will happen to the Pheobe Snows? I assume they are destined for a museum somewhere, though I doubt their interiors are in any reasonable shape.BTW, I took a photo of 5010 on what I think was her last day in NJT service, at Hohokus:  |

I understand one, possibly 2 of the cars are going to Steamtown in Scranton, and I hear the other car is destined for a rail museum out west.With the budget and financial mess at MNR, the conversion of 5009/10 into the Inspection Cars is presently on hold. I did see an initial sketch of what they are gonna look like, and I am not gonna lie, they are gonna look pretty damn sharp!! |

I agree. However, I have seen an initial sketch of what the Comet IIIs will look like after the conversion into the Inspection Cars, and they indeed look very sharp!! :-) |

Uggh but the cars have no grace like the Phoebe cars it should be older equipment. |

I'd rather the graceful equipment go to Steamtown, the utilitarian cars taking over the drudgery of doing the inspection work. |
