A couple of ACF Builders Photos of MP Business Car at the ACF plant in St. Charles, Missouri. Car name and/or number unknown. Also photo date unknown. Maybe some one might be able to provide this information.

The window arrangement on each side and the rear platform railing look like they match car #1. I thought that the car named “The Eagle” became MP 1, but some on the MPHS facebook page were suggesting otherwise. Can anyone confirm either way?

MP #1 was originally MP #12, built by Pullman in 1926 and rebuilt by ACF at some date that I cannot read on my diagram. If someone has a legible diagram to read the rebuild date, I suspect these ACF photos were “builder” photos when the car was completed.
