Pennsy Dining Cars Change Name

Today (April y the Pennsylvania
railroad will discontinue the use of
the name dining car" After today
all cars now known as dining cars"
will be known as restaurant cars"
The term dining car" is a misno-
mer, as the word dining" properly
applies to place to eat dinner. AS
breakfast and luncheon, as well as
dinner, are served in the so-called
dining car" it is actually 'restaur-
ant" car, and the Pennsylvania rail
road has decided to take the initiative
in abolishing the misnomer and in Civ
ing the car its proper title.
This change marks the passing of
a name that has been associated with
first-class railroad travel for nearly
"a years. The first dining car" was
used on the Pennsylvania railroads
"New York and Chicago Limited in
September. 1882. Previous to that
date. through trains had been equipped
with "hotel cars" which were sleeping
cars with a kitchen or buffet in one
end. "Hotel ears were first used in
November. 1878.
