[R-390] Presidential Communications Railroad Car (Crate)

[Larry H]

Hi all,  I found some more good information about this subject and updated
our website with links to it.  Here's a direct link to the page I added to
the history section: R390A Pres Comm Railroad Car.pdf (r-390a.net)
<https://www.r-390a.net/R390A%20Pres%20Comm%20Railroad%20Car.pdf>. Enjoy.

I believe that the picture from page 3 (in my previous post) is not from
1956, but early 1961.  See the new page I added to our website at the link
above for some clarification.

Regards, Larry
