Vintage black-and-white 8 x 10 photograph showing the interior of a Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines passenger coach, identified as PRSL No. 9113.
The photograph provides an excellent full-length view down the center aisle of the car, showing rows of upholstered passenger seating, overhead luggage racks, window treatments, ceiling lighting and ventilation fixtures, and the vestibule/end doorway in the distance.
The strong centered composition makes this an especially useful image for collectors, historians, and modelers interested in the interior arrangement and fittings of period PRSL passenger equipment.
The Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines (PRSL) operated passenger and freight service across southern New Jersey, including extensive service connecting Philadelphia/Camden with Atlantic City and other Jersey Shore destinations. PRSL passenger equipment and interior photographs are considerably less commonly encountered than exterior locomotive and train views. Mount Vernon Shops
