Mission statement:
Our mission is restoring the 1930 Pullman car Palm Point, reflecting as delivered condition. And to make available for generations to come the Pullman experience. Charity Support
We are counting on individuals and corporations that want to preserve one of the last heavy weight passenger Pullman cars of its design. Their support makes saving this treasure from another period in

time possible. Goals and Plan
Our goal is to restore the Palm Point so it can be shipped around the country on rails offering a experience not many alive today have had. The officers are not getting compensated for their work. Definitely a labor of love. First the car is getting stabilized against the weather. Body and roof repaired. As part of this, all 42 windows are getting repaired. This is the next large expense, totaling at least $25,000.

Amazing how fast time goes. Another year almost over. I hope everyone had a good time. Here at Palm Point Restoration we continue to work on raising funds to move this project forward. We gained a team member this year that will help us with obtaining grants. This appears to be a productive venture for our funding needs.

Our mission remains the same, return Palm Point to the rails to provide a hands-on educational experience. You will find it on our home in Facebook.

We wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a happy holidays.
From the team here in Cleveland, thank you for liking our page and following our progress this past year.

I am proud to announce that our followers number over one thousand. 1061 as of month end. Great to see so many people interested in the restoration of the Palm Point Pullman car.

I must ask the followers to make a tax free donation if possible. This restoration happens at the speed of money. If each follower would make a $20. Donation we would be able to fund the rebuild of all the windows and seal the car from the beautiful Cleveland Ohio weather. That would be a significant improvement.

Thank you

It’s hard to believe summer is almost over. It has been a very busy time since my last post. Mostly good times spent with family and friends.

The Palm Point is still waiting for funding to complete the sealing the outside from the weather. With inflation and a recession going on taking away everyone’s cash , this is the worst time to be asking for donations, but I need to ask, if possible please donate. The goal is to get the exterior sealed up before winter.

Thank you, your comments are welcomed.

Palm Point

Built in January of 1930 by the Pullman Company for general service as a 3 compartment, 1 drawing room, buffet, lounge sun room observation car. It was sold by the Pullman Company to the Northern Pacific Railroad in 1948 and had the number 349 added in addition to its original name. Retired by the NP in 1953 and sold into private ownership where it had several uses and one of them was a ice cream stand. Its recent purchase for restoration in 2018 is to put the car back into operational use again for tourist railroads and for private events.
