We operate a historic railcar that's available for use throughout the United States. We offer scheduled and chartered vintage railcar experiences. The Colonial Crafts was built in 1949 for the Pennsylvania Railroad as a three double bedroom, one drawing room, buffet kitchen, lounge. We can sleep nine passengers and seat twenty in the lounge. Elvis rode the car in March 1960 from DC to Memphis after returning from military service overseas. He then rode the car out to Los Angeles a couple weeks later to shoot the picture G. I. Blues.
