Newspaper accounts speak of a change of trains in Utica for the trip south. It is more probably this event, with the recently married President and bride riding to a gala celebration, that somehow was enlarged to become the Honeymoon Car legend. If President Cleveland had used Car 30 and traveled over our road, I am sure I would have been told of it. Debunking a popular myth is not always a pleasant task. The diagrams and photos are arranged by underbody, exterior and interior.
Photos are number keyed to the diagrams.
If anyone has an primary documentation that can answer some of the remaining questions, please contact me. I am indebted to Patrick McLaughlin for allowing the use of his floor plan drawings and extensive research prepared for his Vanishing Vistas series.
