Pullman vestibule patent upheld over Sessions challenge
The court held that George M Pullman’s vestibule car invention, combining a face plate with a pivoting spring buffered arch, was valid and infringed by defendants. It rejected claims that Sessions’ prior patent voided Pullman, noting both inventors contributed distinct improvements and that the defendants’ apparatus implements the Pullman features within the patent claims. Decree for complainants enjoins use of vestibule cars not owned or leased by Pullman.
