CSX resort's assets include fudge warmer, shotguns
The Greenbrier Resort's nearly $142 million worth of assets include a Hobart potato peeler, fudge warmer, Beretta white onyx shotguns and 22 horses, the Associated Press reports.
Financial statements filed with U.S. Bankruptcy Court also show the posh resort's collection of linens is worth about $649,000, while its fleet of golf carts is worth nearly $253,000.
Those items are included in nearly $44 million worth of personal property. The 6,500-acre estate in White Sulphur Springs also listed $97.6 million in real property and $107 million in liabilities.
The former playground of presidents and royalty and site of a Cold War nuclear bunker for Congress filed for bankruptcy last month.
Jacksonville, Fla.-based CSX hopes to close a $130 million sale to Bethesda, Md.-based hotel giant Marriott.
