pullman cars were normally a dark "pullman green", although some were painted in the host railroad's colors. the cars carried individual names, but usually did not carry visible numbers. in the 1920s, the pullman company went through a series of restructuring steps, which in the end resulted in a parent company, pullman incorporated, controlling the pullman company (which owned and operated sleeping cars) and the pullman-standard car manufacturing company. due to an antitrust verdict in 1947, a consortium of railroads bought the pullman company from pullman incorporated, and subsequently railroads owned and operated pullman-made sleeping cars themselves. pullman-standard continued manufacturing sleeping cars and other passenger and freight railroad cars until 1980.
