Description	New York Central Railroad (NYC) 1936 Mercury Reed & Barton Silver Oval (Small) Hot Food Cover. Two different sizes were produced, and this example is the larger of the two. This is a rare piece as only one dining car was built for the single Mercury trainset that ran between Detroit and Cleveland. Reed and Barton only produced one set of silver for this train before International took over the contract when the Mercury was expanded in 1939 to include runs to Chicago.
