DSRX 123         
Formerly serving commuters in and out of Hoboken Terminal on the DL&W electrified Morris & Essex Lines, now enjoys a quieter life hauling tourists in the Mid Coast region of Maine. Built by Pullman in 1920 as a locomotive hauled coach, it was converted into a trailer car in 1930 for use with the powered Lackawanna electric multiple units. Retired in 1984 by NJ Transit, it was picked up by a railroad in Michigan before acquisition by the Downeast Scenic in 2010. Original number was DL&W 663, renumbered as DL&W 2315 when converted for MU service. Note the Lackawanna Railroad logo next to the vestibule door.
