What's Behind Door #3?

Buzz has sent us some interesting updates behind his work on doors for the Pullman car Pawnee.  This was the last heavyweight private car built by Pullman, and was acquired by IRM in 2019.   You can read all about it at this link.

Door #1: Warped and peeling veneer had to be removed and repaired.


Door #2:  New veneer is dry-fit with replacement trim.


Door #3: Replacement trim and veneer had to be separately stained to match the existing old mahogany.


Door #4: Ready to be put back on!
