This 52 seat lightweight coach was built by the Budd Company in 1949 for the Southern Railway. The car was used on trains such as The Southerner, The Tennessean, The Royal Palm, and The Crescent. The Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum would acquire the car in 2011. The 832 is currently undergoing a complete restoration to bring the car back into service.
