After a successful few years with the railroad's first dining car, a second car was then remodeled in the spring of 1995, based on the South Shore 24. This car incorporated many functional improvements learned from three years and dozens of operations with the Ravenswood, including a larger, curved custom mahogany bar and more efficient galley facilities. The interior featured dark green as it primary color, and was an immediate hit. Completed in only thirteen months by the volunteers, and named the Beverly Shores, it increased the total capacity per run to one hundred.
