Great shots! I am sorry but was this an NS Movement or did they come by Amtrak?

They came by Amtrak, but NS moved them into the siding...

Ahh, one of the Wolverines I presume? And how long will they be in town?

Hard say, that Charter cars will be going out any where travel places and come back in siding on New Center again. If you can came to enter Charter cars but you have must use fancy causal as business clothes, NO BLUE JEAN AND NO BUMMER CLOTHES. They would be give you sat the chair then plates, folks, knife, spoons on table with flowers for fancy luncheon or dinner - Big $$$$$$ money. I looked the windows then I saw people sat in Charter cars.

The charter cars are used to sell steel (no joke). I was wondering where that pair was, I was in Milwaukee WI yesterday and didn't see them with the other pair on the station track. St. James place (1953 Pullman Standard 11 double bedroom converted into a business car) it and Charter Club are one of the married sets. Golden Moon (1942 Pullman Standard 4-4-2 converted into a 2 master bedroom, 1 double bedroom) and Imperial Leaf (1942 Pullman Standard 4-4-2 Sleeper) are the other set. I talked to the mechanics in Milwaukee last summer and apparently they make the trip to Ann Arbor quite frequently, so keep your eyes open gents!
