An additional 5 coaches (with 56 seats) were also built in this Lot for the FEC to Plan #7593A, which were sold to SAL in 1965, and were also acquired by Amtrak. #5461 was retired in 1979 and sold in 1981 to the Memphis Transportation Museum (Collierville, TN), and was acquired in 2012 by Iowa Pacific.
