Subject: Pullmans in the 1930s on the Syracuse Line
"Grandma_s_Pullman_Ticket.jpg" - image/jpeg, 2473x1735 (24bit)

In all my years of looking into the history of the S&U Division, I have
never seen tickets from either line the one included with this message.
Somehow, I forgot that I had this- my Grandmother's Pullman ticket from when
she would ride the Interstate Express back and forth between Cortland and
Philadelphia in the 1930s.



I'd really like to know the Pullman car name but my earlier history on the
Express is sparse before 1940. Anyone know when the line (Pullman 2178)
started or what Pullmans were being used in the 1930s? In 1940 it was
Ottawa and Raymilton but I don't know when they were introduced. How about
trains 10/15 which carried Pullmans between Syracuse and Hoboken? In the
1950s it was four Scenic cars but again I don't know when they started or
when the Pullman line (# unknown) started.



Thanks for any tidbits!



Joshua
