There's an unusual view of a Pullman parlor car, in a train wreck at Stamford, Connecticut, which is like a cutaway view showing innards, wheels, of the car, inthis public domain photo.Perhaps for instructional use here? --doncram(talk)00:27, 17 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

In Italian

edit

The word "pullman" in Italian is indeed generally used to refer to coach buses. However, in certain regions, it is instead commonly used to refer to city buses, instead. That was personally a source of confusion for me when, about 14 years old, I moved from a city about one hour from Milan to a different city in the North-East of Italy. What I used to refer to as a "pullman" was instead called there a "bus" or "autobus". The word I used for coach buses instead was "corriera" (which is used everywhere in the country).195.228.122.131(talk)22:46, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
