Two of these were built so that the conductors on our passenger hauling trains could ride in comfort.  Our passenger-carrying riding cars are OK for one or two trips around the track for our visiting public but hard on club conductors who do longer shifts.  One of the cars has a drink holder ... I think we can expand on this concept <grin>

Hi
Here is a club member's riding car - driving the locomotive in comfort.
