OFF TOPIC

In the 1950s Pullman introduced some improvements to its sleeping
cars. This 1953 Railway Age article describes them.

ObComp: none. Pullman required a massive clerical operation to
keep track of its fleet, but pictures suggest it was all manual, just
a battery of clerks handling slips of paper.
