Slumbercoach

Slumbercoach
One of the more economic ways to travel and get a sleeper was the Slumbercoach. They had single and double units, available for only $15 over coach fare for a single when this was taken. The rooms were tiny, but beat the snot out of sleeping in a coach seat. This one is westbound on the Broadway-as if the signal was not a giveaway!!
