The Sun Lounges were a fleet of three streamlined sleeper-lounge cars built by Pullman-Standard for the Seaboard Air Line Railroad in 1956. The cars featured a distinctive glazed roof area meant to capture the ambience of a dome car in a lower profile, as tunnels on the East Coast of the United States prevented the use of dome cars there. The Seaboard employed all three Sun Lounges on its flagship Silver Meteor between New York City and Miami, Florida. The cars later saw service with the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad and Amtrak. Two of the three survive in private ownership.

  • Sun Lounge wurden drei stromlinienförmige Schlaf- und Speisewagen mit ungewöhnlichen Dachfenstern genannt, die den Eindruck eines Aussichtswagens auf Strecken mit kleinem Lichtraumprofil nachahmten, weil die Tunnel an der Ostküste der USA für Aussichtswagen zu klein sind. Die Sun Lounge Wagen wurden von der Firma Pullman-Standard 1956 für die Seaboard Air Line Railroad gebaut. Sie wurden von der Seaboard-Eisenbahngesellschaft in ihren hochwertigen -Zügen zwischen New York City und Miami sowie später von der Seaboard Coast Line Railroad und Amtrak eingesetzt. (de)
