Donated by Monk Johnson, tihs bunk car was built at the turn of the century and was used till the 1930's. In the time of horses and wagons, it took many people to harvest the grain. These people were called 'threshing crews' because their job was to 'thresh' or separate the grain from the stalks. They travelled from one farmer's land to another, harvesting all day long, then sleeping in the cozy bunk car at night.
