The 83 foot Pullman car Victoria, built in 1927 and once used by FDR in 1935, is being donated by San Diego executives to the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum Association. The museum plans to restore it for future charters with an $8,000 target for new couplings to meet modern standards.

Unoccupied Stages Converted Tennis Invades Movie Sets
Los Angeles scenes reveal Hollywood studios repurposed for tennis as film production slows. Glenn Ford and Rita Hayworth era stages now host the Hollywood Indoor Tennis Club and International Studio Tennis Club with members from Streisand to Carson. Indoor play suits weather, smog, and night filming gaps. Membership costs and hourly court rates are noted as studios maximize idle space.
