Private rail cars once rolled in royal style across America
European aristocracy had palaces on wheels yet American leaders built private railroad cars in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Kirkman car near High Point and other tycoon cars roamed tracks, with costs rising from 50 000 in 1900 to 500 000 by 1940.
