Thanks Douglas,Philip and Sonny. Yes, Philip found the photo of the car. 
Sonny, the car's just between Jeff Hwy and Airline. It's on 
a back road that leads to Ochsner.

I had the numbers mixed up, and it's more than 4 windows. Observant for a 
photographer I am huh?

So here you go rivet counters:

I think there are some train experts on this list......

I photographed an old New York Central train car the other day in New 
Orleans. It's sitting on a lot with some other old train 
pieces. Car # is 8795 and says "New York Central" in big letters on the 
side. There's only 4 windows so it may be a sleeping or 
dining car? Guess this train used to come to New Orleans via NY?

I'll post some images tomorrow.

Thanks in advance,

Chris
