B&SE # 500
Delivered May, 2004

Birmingham & Southeastern No. 500

This Edwards Rail Car was built in 1923 for the Washington & Lincolnton Railway. It was sold to the B&SE in 1929 where it ran until the early 1970s. The car was delivered to the new Edwards Company in Mount Dora, Florida for a complete restoration.

Photo to the left shows car body as received, the photo below shows car body re-assembled on its chassis with installation of interior and exterior wood components.




Now railroad officials can travel over their roads in vintage splendor at a fraction of the cost associated with the operation of standard heavy-weight equipment. ERC can outfit your car with any appointments and arrangements for sleeping, water-closets with shower, dining room and galley. Relive the glamorous age of rail travel aboard your customized, self-propelled Edwards Rail Car!
