One of most elegant private cars in the world when it was built in 1914 for the personal use of Dr. W.S. Webb, president of Wagner Palace Car Company. When New York Central's 20th Century Limited express broke New York-Chicago rail passenger speed record in 1932, this was that train's rear car. Owned 1920-1961 by T. & P. Railway. Presented in 1962 to Fort Worth Children's Museum. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark, 1966.
