This book by Robert & Kandace Tabern, and written in partnership between the Midwest Rail Rangers and the Wisconsin Great Northern Railway, traces the history of the former Santa Fe Hi-Level lounge cars and ex-Amtrak Pacific Parlour Cars. Learn about how people have been enjoying these beautiful cars for the past 65+ years. This book places an extra focus on the history behind Wisconsin Great Northern's new acquisition --- Sky Parlour Namekagon View (which was former AT&SF Hi-Level Lounge Car #577, and former Amtrak #9972, #39972, and Pacific Parlour Car Napa Valley). There are plenty of old advertisements in the book from the Santa Fe and Amtrak days to bring back fond memories of passengers who may have rode these cars back in the day. Your purchase helps both the Midwest Rail Rangers, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides on-board educational programs... and the Wisconsin Great Northern which owns and maintains this railroad car for public use on a regularly scheduled basis.
