Completed in 1864 the car featured "plush red carpet, gilt edged mirrors, brocaded fabric seats, door frames and windows made of hardworked and polished woods, silver trimmed coal-oil lamps. The Pioneer cost $20,000 - five times the price of the "ordinary car" Stanley Buder writes in his book PULLMAN.
