GN #A4 BONITA
Title:  GN #A4 BONITA
Description:  GN business car #A4 (2nd), built by Barney & Smith in 1882 as coach #208, later rebuilt to business car #A23, later renumbered to #A4 (2nd), new center sills installed in 1927, rebuilt in 1930, later placed on display in Crystal Lake, IL, with the name BONITA applied as seen here, later renamed FARGO. Note that this car never had one of the two open platforms closed in as a vestibule. Besides both open platforms, the #A4 also still retains the older style of internal layout, with a lounge observation next to one platform and the dining room next to the other, with a kitchen, crew room, state room, and bedroom in between in that order from dining end to lounge end. Scanned with an Epson V550 from an original Kodachrome 35mm slide. Exact date is approximate.
