I had a pal who worked for the Union Pacific on the bridges and buildings crew. He lived in a converted Pullman car and it had power, water, phone and cable hooked up to local utilities. And the toilet was an incinerator type. Young, single and no rent for watching the yard where it was parked. Pretty cool set up. And a 10 minute walk to local bars.

Want an expansion? Just couple up the other car.

She did a great job on it. Very sharp.

No mail, no electricity, no water, no Tv; train yards can be noisy. Might not be able to park a vehicle close.

Wow, too bad I just found this. I want that home!!

The, "low profile" could come back to haunt her. I would paint the exterior. The abandoned look attracts transients.

Perfect man cave for a rail fan!

If I had money, I’d do the same thing.

This is too cool. I would love it. Kind of like a bat cave on rails.

i will come up with enough money to buy that house. i would choose that over a mansion unless the mansion is across train tracks. i would love to live there because of my love for trains

Makes me glad we bought new 1969 45k today 200k in a normal redwood sided ranch house.

im not fond of the modern interior but I love the concept, very cool

BTW the railroad that rents the siding is the Oregon Pacific Railroad

I would love this!!!!

Great interior. Yipes!!! what an ugly exterior and the neighborhood is a mugger and thief wet dream. Hobums sleeping under a $80,000+ train conversion OMG!!!!!

Like a narrow boat that doesn’t float.

I know this is a old post,BUT i wonder what ever happened with this deal. (lol) They scrap newer cars just like this in El Paso,Tx makin R-bar from it. Some people have more $$$ than brains..

POV: You ruin a 1949 Pullman car

Imagine a train accidentally couples up and starts moving

Why does it remind me of a Canadian Pacific coach?

Wow unbelievable

Like a loft? Everything's like a loft in Portland 🙄

300 grand in 2021 at least!!!!

Looks like its parked in a dump.

So that’s the inside of garage trailers look like

Looks cool *:)*

keeping it low profile, like being on cnn

Which disused line is this?

Moving must be a cinch.

can not move anywhere 'you want'...you can get a 'real' PV for similiar money..AND go anywhere-IF you get it insured.

Why? What is the true cost when you try to sell it or abandon it after 1-2 years? Someone hasn't thought this through! This has all the problems of a "tiny house" X100! They say, "But I don't have to pay taxes." But taxes are included in the rent, so you pay more than the tax to rent! And then there is the "no running water" part of the equation. I spent $69,900 for a small house on 1/2 acre, in a small town, easy commute to 2 major cities. I have a garage, running water, and I never have to worry about being forced to move my house!

Impressive on the inside but I would not want to live in this with location and the horrid train going by.

Neat

Oh ok

$1k a month to rent a piece of railroad? BWAHAHAHHA

Did they remove all the mold infected wood also?

crap of a neigborhood.

screen remains black

1:40 railroad tracks in usa..

Secure: Yes n just one wise guys can slide a thumb size twig thru the hasp lock and you will need to call a friend or 911 to get out by the looks of that hasp on the door....

*Reads title* Well, shit

in a horrible location, damaged property, damaged land, limitations due to zoning, list goes on....you are gullible af if you think this is worth 100k

mm nah !!!!

Cool rail car in a crap city. Only CNN show that’s not a lie.

Certainly very safe once insideespecially is someone puts a padlock on the outside after you get in. Then you can't get out.

I'm surprised the city doesn't charge her for the graffiti

what a rip off

Would be nice as a house add on... be better to own an old depot as main house, and this as like a bedroom or living room.
