About this property

Historic Pullman Train Car | Sleeps 2!

Theodore Roosevelt used this car on one of his trips to the 6666 Ranch in North Texas. It is believed that the Indian Chief Quanah Parker has also ridden in this unique Pullman Car. History surrounds you in every nook and cranny. This wonderful antique train car was built in 1894 by Pullman for the Quanah, Acme and Pacific railroad. Not only is the car historic, but it is very Romantic and perfect for a "Just the Two of You" Getaway.

40th Anniversary

We had an overall great trip, could have used more lighting outside for coming and going in the evening. But with that being said it was interesting place to stay. I would stay again.

Romantic cozy stay

The Pullman is an interesting step back in history. The preservation of the railcar character adds to ambience. The Pullman is a nice place for a romantic getaway. Only drawback was the people trying to use it as a background for photos. The steps are a little step to the entrance but not horrible

Unique and Lovely Experience

This was one of the most unique stays! You have to stay here on your stay in Fredericksburg! The train car was decorated in authentic (or what appeared to be) furnishings, especially highlighting President Theodore Roosevelt. It was bigger than expected. The days and nights were very quiet and peaceful. It will help if you bring a small flashlight to use if walking back at night because it can be dark as you approach the train car. The hall/walkway down the train car is narrow, so it would not be comfortable for overly large individuals.
