This is one of the famous "Bullet cars" built by Brill in 1931 for the Philadelphia & Western. Like the other cars in its class, it ran into the 1980's; in 1986 it was acquired by Delaware Car Company, which put it on display. In 1996 it was acquired - sans trucks and interior - by the Museum of Transportation near St. Louis, where it is currently stored.
