When do we get to see another photo of the “day”?- maybe next year??
We wait with hope.
Is photo of the day stuck on this picture?
Let’s hope that’s not the case.
Remember that In 1947 General Motors ordered four domes (the “Moon Glow” lounge, “Sky View” diner, “Star Dust” coach, and “Dream Cloud” sleeper) from Pullman-Standard Car Manufacturing Company for a new publicity train known as the “Train Of Tomorrow.” The idea was meant to showcase the latest in rail travel accommodations following the war. After touring cross-country the equipment was purchased by Union Pacific. Today, “Moon Glow” is the only surviving piece from the consist.
It would be great if those stylish sleeping cars could use duvets instead of blankets.
Well you can have your duvet but I vote for a PULLMAN blanket!!
