Two of the original Crusader cars survive today, more than 70 years after their introduction.
One of the coach-observations is in the collection of the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania at Strasburg.
The other coach-observation, with the name "Olympic", is part of the consist of the Spirit of Washington Dinner Train. It is currently stored with the rest of the SOW consist in Battle Ground, Wash., northeast of Vancouver. The train recently ceased operations after just a few months running out of Tacoma.
