“This rail car home in Portland was created from a 1949 Portland sleeper car. It’s surprisingly roomy at 807 square feet and with 10 foot ceilings. Did I mention it’s for sale?

The “home” is currently listed at $225,000 at LaurieHolland. According to the Web site, since it’s not technically real estate, there are no property taxes. Modern interior features include a full electric kitchen, DSL and an incinerator toilet.”
