    Prince Albert II of Monaco at The Greenbrier

    President Eisenhower and his brother Milton on Chessie 29

    Prince Albert II, heir to the princely throne of Monaco, son of Prince Rainier III and Princess Grace (formerly actress Grace Kelly) poses in C&O outfit on a passenger car during his family’s trip aboard Chessie 29. Gifted to him by C&O Railway President Walter J. Tuohy, Prince Albert was reportedly so pleased with the engineer’s costume that he put on the outfit immediately and did not want to take it off. Prince Albert II is the current sovereign prince of Monaco. Prince Rainier III, Grace, Albert, and Caroline visited The Greenbrier in April 1963, traveling on Tuohy's business car Chessie 29 (cspr-11285-1.JPG; May 2, 1963, courtesy of the Chesapeake & Ohio Historical Society, archive # CSPR-11285-1).
