There are 2 coaches that I found. The one on the East End is: NYC Pullman "Chittenango Falls". She is classed as: BDR/Buffet/Lounge, car build number: 10588, converted into Parlor-Buffett-Lounge Car 647 October 1958, and sold to a guy by the name of Ted Church in October 64'.

Upon a distant inspection she hasn't moved in some years, doesn't have the newer passenger car tansition ends or marker lights.

The other coach is unrecognizeable. Its heavily rusted.

The switch to the new spur has been installed on the Toledo Subdivision. Incidentally, railroad crews call Wapakoneta, "AK" for short in homage to the old tower that used to stand at the NYC/B&O diamonds.
