Reply to "Why No One Makes Pullman Cars"

Lets just say the Pullman Company got real huffy when ATSF had Budd build the sleepers for the '37 Super Chief and refused to crew them.   Pullman and ATSF negotiated and the '38 Super Chief had Pullman sleepers and everything else Budd.   Add to that the CB&Q who continued to have Budd build their streamlined trains and crew the sleepers themselves.   Pretty much all the railroads were ****ed at Pullman but they had so much power and influence few crossed them; except ATSF.
