There's a train car from 1916 that has been converted into an Airbnb in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. This thing is awesome. It still sits on wheels attached to a "track", and you even enter the caboose via t little ticket station. According to the Airbnb listing, here's a little inside on this converted train car:

Welcome, and all aboard the Smoky Mountain Station - Pigeon Forge’s first “Traincation” lodging choice! Inside this two-bedroom/one-bathroom authentic circa-1916 CSX caboose, train enthusiasts will discover an original railroad-charm-meets-luxury mountain retreat. Greeted by your very own ticket booth, you and your guests will climb aboard your very own “Traincation” retreat! The caboose is seamlessly connected to a replica Euro-inspired train depot that houses the main suite, which features a hand-carved, king-size bed, dual closets, a Smart HD TV, and direct access to a private spa deck. The home is located in the heart of Pigeon Forge within one mile of Dollywood, two blocks from a mountain coaster, and within a mile-and-a-half of top attractions such as Dolly’s Stampede, the Island Pigeon Forge, and the Old Mill District.
