I believe the two E8s mentioned are making an excursion to Ohio over the July 30 weekend. If all of the above information is correct the car in question may be in the consist. Check this link for more information: http://www.trainfestival2004.com/prrpress.html

PRR #120 is indeed owned by Bennett Levin. The Queen Mary, however, is not operable, having been part of a Victoria Station restaurant in the late 70's on NJ Rt 23 North in Wayne NJ.
The site is now a professional office, and the Queen is painted a disgusting brown color

I believe #120 is owned by Bennet Levin along with the Queen Mary and two E8s repained for PRR. They are all kept at his Juniata Terminal shop near Frankford Junctiojn in Philadelphia when not out running. Bennet has been very gracious running trips in the east and usually has the equipment at RR days in Altoona where they run excursions up the curve.

Leonmon,
According to this link, found by doing a
Google
search:
http://www.nrhs.com/natdir/spring02/4-13limited.htm
it is now privately owned. If you do a
Google
search using "PRR business car #120, "Pennsylvania"," as the search term you'll find some other sites with information on this car.

Does anybody know what ever happened to PRR business car #120 Pennsylvania?
I saw this car many years ago in a film by the BBC named Coast to Coast.
