Many cars survive in preservation, most notably on the Venice
Simplon-Orient-Express mainline operation, but also on the
various preserved railways up and down the country such as
the Bluebell Railway, Kent & East Sussex Railway and North
Yorkshire Moors Railway, who operate Pullman dining trains.
It is these locations which provide the venue for the Society's
Annual General Meeting to which members are invited to bring
along items for display. The day is completed with the traditional
dinner within an appropriate Pullman surrounding.
The Society also holds one day autumn gatherings at similar venues with a Pullman theme. The 2011 AGM will take place at the Wheatlands Lodge Hotel, Scarcroft Road, York on Saturday 14th May. There will then be a visit to view Pullman preservation work on the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway followed by an evening meal on the White Rose Pullman of the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway. On Sunday there will be a tour of the National Railway Museum at York to view Pullman related artefacts. All Society and prospective members are cordially invited to attend and will be warmly welcomed.
