pullman
Flat-topped bread
A pullman is a railroad sleeping car, originally made by the Pullman Company, featuring convertible berths or private compartments for overnight travel.
The term sometimes extends to other comfortable passenger accommodations: pullman kitchen refers to a narrow, galley-style kitchen.
We booked a pullman for the cross-country trip. (Capitalized Pullman is the company name or a place name.)
