The City of Garland's application for a state historic marker for the Pullman Railcar was recently accepted by the Texas Historic Commission.
Pullman Coach Car #582 is one of only three remaining cars in the U.S. built of a combination of wood and steel construction. Built in 1910, it is also the only surviving car that was never clad in steel-plated siding.
The Pullman Railcar is located outside the Landmark Museum, 393 N. Sixth St. The museum is open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
Garland is lucky to have such a unique part of U.S. rail history.
