The remaining evidence of the original, highly decorative, livery on this door of the Pullman car "Balmoral" ... a considerable amount of the original interior is within the carriage, I was pleased to note.

Restoration paused at present, note that "Balmoral" was one of four exported as kits from Detroit, and currently contains parts from "Dunrobin" which fitted perfectly when installed.

see later picture ...

The other Pullman camping coach (Elmira) still has the sofa in place, so we used it as a pattern for the replica we built.
