Pullman Standard built many passenger cars during the 40s and 50s. They fell short of quality compared to Budd products because the car bodies were carbon steel with stainless steel covering. Budd built cars were all stainless construction with no set life expectancy. Amtrak was retiring its Pullman Standard built railroad cars as early as 1973 and especially when it got new Amfleet cars and began rebuilding Budd built cars to Heritage fleet. Car 4483 was built by Pullman Standard in 1947 for Santa Fe, acquired by Amtrak and retired by Amtrak in 1981. Sold to a private owner. Now this.
