The former NYC observation Jon remembers is the "Hickory Creek", one of the two sleeper-observations built by Pullman-Standard for the 1948 re-equipping of the 20th Century Limited. It survives today,restored to its original appearance, and is privately-owned in New Jersey.
Its sister car, the "Sandy Creek", became part of the American Orient Express, and is currently owned by former NS CEO and current Amtrak President Wick Moorman.
