Coach 6082 was built by the Budd Company in 1939 for the Pennsylvania Railroad as car number 4006. This car was part of the merger with the New York Central and became Penn Central number 4006. It was acquired by AMTRAK after the Penn Central declared bankruptcy in 1970. In 1975 it was reworked at the Beech Grove shops, a railway maintenance facility in Beech Grove, Indiana, outside Indianapolis. Beech Grove is AMTRAK's primary maintenance facility. It was renumbered 6082 with the first two digits representing the number of seats. The car was purchased by the North Alabama Railroad Museum in December, 1977.
