   Typical Pullman ad in section days.

   But Pullman travel was expensive, almost double that of a   
   coach seat.   
      
   The upper berths weren't popular and didn't sell well.   
      
   Personally, I preferred the 10-6 roomette over a Viewliner.   
      
      
   After WW II, NYC re-equipped.
