The Car was transfered from the NS Huntingburg Yard to Jasper on November the 15th by the Dubois County Railroad.  The car sat at the Depot in Jasper for several weeks due to a traffic jam in the yard at French Lick.  The Indiana Railway Museum was swamped in that yard because of the "Polar Express" train that was running out of the during the [not allowed]mas Season.  They entertained more than 15,000 riders
during that time period.    On December 21st, 2011 the Business Car made the last 25 miles of a nearly 700 mile trip to the Museum.
This is a short version of that trip from the Jasper, IN Depot to the Depot at French Lick.  It is the arrival at French Lick.

17 members of the MRHTS enjoyed the ride on this cold dreary day brightened by the fact that the mission was being accomplished.
