SP Diner 10264 |
| Description: |
SP 10264 - The dining unit of 3-unit articulated coffee shop-kitchen-diner 10262-10263-10264. The car was retired in 1968 and was one of about 100 cars sold to Judge Roy Hofheinz in Houston for use as a motel in the ASTRODOMAIN hotel complex next to the Houston ASTRODOME (which explains why it was in Houston); but none of the cars were ever used and most were scrapped. This car and the 10265-10266-10267 were built by Pullman-Standard in 1949 for service on the SHASTA DAYLIGHT. |

It looks like all GP40 units headed east between Houston and Katy. Today all of this is gone. UP abandoned this portion of the Katy. I-10 expansion covers the right-of-way and the fields in the background are solid shopping centers,subdivisions and concrete. UP kept the line from the town of Katy to the west (Katy is where the rice elevators are in the far background). |
