A carriage from WW2, that started off as a kitchen carriage for troop trains carrying soldiers to the East Coast is at the base of the Great Smoky Mountains in Tennessee.




Now called Platform 1346, the owners originally found it in Florida where they snapped it up during a military surplus auction, according to Levi Kelly. A piece of what was once a troop train, it is now somewhat famous for its status as a stunning renovation project and unique rental home, which is why it has been featured on both the Travel Channel and NBC's Today show

    Damn this is so nice. I start to dig more about that type, there are couple of original ones around US that can be visited. One is in Hoosier Valley Railroad Museum other in Orange Empire Railway Museum, more here and there. Maybe some day I could visit them, they are pretty cool.
