That is a blank slate. It could be turned into something beautiful. Currently it is lacking. It looks functional but that is it.
Functional is beautiful. It’s only “lacking” if the people who live there think so. It has a good fire, friendly dogs, a safe place to sleep…It looks lovely to me.
I’m with you Liz. Part of the beauty is the story all the components tell…
Hahahahah…raw papers in the fourth picture…love it
I am in love with that. It could be something great. I wish there was more pictures of it. I am looking for a tiny house in that area right now. Magic could happen with that piece of history
Admittedly, I would spruce it up more but I think it is pretty cool. Wonder what would have happened to the train car if someone hadn’t turned it into a home?
Beautiful, simple, I’d love to live in one of these.
I love the use of metal in this home, an awesome fit with the original train car. Beautiful mural in the bedroom.
Using an old train car for a home is a wonderful idea! Yes, I would decorate it differently, but to each his/her own.
I agree-
It is a retired railcar for a retired railroad man in New Mexico-

Frills and lace?
It seems balanced and appropriate to me.
There’s a nice one on Confederate St in Fort Mill, SC. I would love to see inside that one.

As an example, if you are contemplating. Whatever your need for a certificate of completion of the electrician to ensure that everythingis done in a much
better way than to ask your family or click here friends.
The type of work they undertake depending on their pricing policies.
Although a solar panel pay for itself with the energy it needs is being supplied.
What a brilliant idea! I have to agree with some here, though, a lot of potential lost with the decor and choices made with wiring, etc. To each his or her own. It did inspire me to think or what I could do! I think you for that!
