CIWL4550_Mulh01.jpg (145889 bytes)

Sleeping-car type P, CIWL No. 4550. Built 1956 by Carel-Fouché, it was in service for SNCF until 1987 or 1988. Its last UIC number (now cancelled out) was 61 87 75-30 740-7. It is in the appearance of the 1980s, with cobalt blue stripes above the windows and on the bottom, and the "Sleeping-car" signs are cobalt blue as well, with white inscriptions. Rubber gangways and oil heating have been added in the 1970s. Mulhouse, Cité du Train, 2006-06-02 tobias b köhler

Sleeping-car type P, CIWL No. 4550. Very few of these cars are preserved in their original state. 20 of them have been completely rebuilt in the early 1990s and are still running in daily service for ÖBB, SNCB and NS. The most notable differences before rebuilding are the twenty small compartments at two levels. After 1983 they could be used with a second class ticket and "T2" supplement in France - before, they were charged first class "Special" tariff (less expensive than a "Single").
