sleeping cars
Rolling stock berths
Sleeping cars are railroad passenger cars equipped with beds or berths for overnight travel.
The compartments convert from seating to sleeping arrangements, allowing passengers to rest during long journeys: We booked a sleeping car from Chicago to Los Angeles.
Also called sleepers or Pullman cars, after the company that popularized them.
