In Grand Coteau, you can spend the night in an old train car

By ADAM DAIGLE | Acadiana Business Editor​ ​ ​

Welcome the Friday edition of the Acadiana Business Newsletter. Let's get to the headlines....

The Trainwreck Inn will open Saturday at 211 Chatrian St. in the center of town and will feature two refurbished train cars along with two buildings that were often found in a train yard.

Owners Ben Trant and Colin Grussing had bought all four buildings from the previous owner, Margaret Brinkhaus, who had them on her property in Sunset. After years of working on them thanks to the help of several people, the train cars are now ready for guests.

One of the train cars is a caboose, one Trant says is the last caboose that ran on the old rail line that went through Sunset.

Read the full story here.

Have a great weekend and thanks for reading.
