CUSTOMER SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT - FOR RELEASE - SATURDAY, MAY 10, 2025
The Seashore Lines is pleased to announce that its employees have completed a full restoration of Comet I Lounge Car no. 1786!
Comet I passenger car no. 1786 was originally built by Pullman - Standard for the Erie Lackawanna Railroad / New Jersey Department of Transportation in 1971 to be used in push-pull commuter service in northern New Jersey. Ownership of the car was transferred to NJ Transit Rail Operations in the early 1980’s. Comet I commuter coaches were retired from NJ Transit service in 2006, and car 1786 was generously preserved by NJ Transit when it was donated to our friends at the Whippany Railway Museum.
In 2024, the car was acquired by the Seashore Lines, and underwent a complete interior refurbishment to provide First Class accommodations to our customers!
Prep and painting work was recently completed in April 2025, returning the car to its ‘as built’ appearance with a midnight blue window band, red outer stripe, black undercarriage and platinum mist car ends. Additional restoration work was completed by the Seashore Lines with the installation of new windows and new HVAC system components. In all, we estimate over 1,000 man hours were invested by Seashore Lines employees to fully restore car no. 1786!
Stay tuned to our website and Facebook page for many more exciting announcements through the summer of 2025!
