Hi Charles--From Garry Spear's site at
http://prr.railfan.net/passenger/GSPEAR/GSPEAR_PRR_Parlor_Car.htm#PRR7119

CALVERTON was accounting number 7119, a 26 chair, 1 drawing room, buffet 
parlor car built to Plan 2417N.  There was one similar car, TARENTUM, which 
has two photos published in Liljestrand & Sweetland's Pennsylvania Parlor 
Cars on page 36.
