From the site http://www.rypn.org/ <br /> <br />Super Dome 53 and office car "Montana" will be moving on Train 8 on Thursday, May 18, to Chicago. The dome will be part of a special train for the Restaurant Show which is taking place in Chicago this weekend. The two cars are scheduled to return to Minneapolis on Monday, May 22, on the rear of the "Empire Builder." <br /> <br />In June, Dome 53 will be used as a premium class car (along with Skytop "Cedar Rapids") on the #261's trips on the former Milwaukee Road between Minneapolis and Milwaukee and the "day" trips out of Milwaukee. Tickets are still available for these trips and may be ordered on-line at: www.261.com <br /> <br />Supporting these trips not only keeps the locomotive alive but also allows for purchase, restoration (such as this very job), maintenance and operation of some very historical and unique passenger rolling stock. <br /> <br />Thanks to all of you who ride with us and allow us to present a car such as this Super Dome. <br /> <br />You were lucky enough to see it. <br />
