Amtrak sleeper 2890 was on the northbound CRESCENT leaving New Orleans shortly after the train received HERITAGE FLEET equipment. This 10 compartment-6 double bedroom car was built in 1950 as Union Pacific PACIFIC UNION and was numbered 1446 when Pullman went out of the sleeping car business in 1969. It became Amtrak 2637, then HERITAGE FLEET car 2890, and then privately-owned car 800640 which was based in the New Orleans area for many years. |
