Historic Pullman Train Car | Sleeps 2!

Want to experience what it was like to ride in a Pullman car while crossing this great country of ours? The 1894 Private Palace Pullman Car will give you that feeling and more! Theodore Roosevelt used this car on one of his trips to the 6666 Ranch in North Texas. It is believed that the Indian Chief Quanah Parker has also ridden in this unique Pullman Car. History surrounds you in every nook and cranny. This wonderful antique train car was built in 1894 by Pullman for the Quanah, Acme and Pacific railroad. Not only is the car historic, but it is very Romantic and perfect for a "Just the Two of You" Getaway.

Fun and Romantic Trip to the Age of Trains
Very clean, comfortable, and romantic place to spend a night or two with my wife. We arrived very late and used a lock box location to pick up the key. We were really happy to not to need to bother anyone that late. If you are doing this, be sure to arrange this with the host before hand. Upon arrival, we were delighted by the period decorations and historic texts provide. It was a fun way to connect with the Pullman. The car had all of the amenities that we expect with modern accommodations, and they blended well with the historic features. The location would be within a walk to Main St, if the weather were good. For us the weather was a bit to cold for the walk, but the drive was very short. There was ample parking just outside of the train. As a warning (and I am sure, they call this out), if you need an ADA style, this is probably not the stay for you. We loved the location, and the experience, and will be recommending it to others for a fun and romantic get away.

Broken heart
My son b-day was horrible. The place was uncleaned, no linen, bedding on floor was dirty and stained as well. Restroom had trash overflowing from prior tenants. Couch had dog hair on it. No towels and roaches in kitchen side. Spoke to manager she was kind. She sent over cleaning people and they treated me like we shouldn't have been there! My son was in PJs btw tome they arrived with bag of linen. For what i payed the experience was horrible. The only thing was my 5 yr old was amazed to be in a train. I saved for this trip and it was disappointing

Great unique place to stay
The rental management company was very helpful with questions about the property and about things to do in town. The property itself was very clean and surprisingly spacious. It’s a wonderful unique place to rent filled with history. We can’t wait to go back next year!

Post wedding/mini moon
This was the best place to rent post wedding. I wanted to find something you wouldn’t expect to find in Texas and I had no idea this Pullman car existed—having been born and raised in Texas. My husband and I met back East and moved to Texas in 2021 so I love finding things/places he wouldn’t expect to see/exist in Texas.
