Attract overnight travelers to your line! Designed to increase revenue by
making the most of the available space, the interior featured 24 single and
eight double bedrooms. These economy sleepers could carry up to 40
passengers, lowering fares and making the cars popular with salesmen,
business travelers and tourists on a budget.
Your Walthers model is a fitting tribute to these legendary cars. As
the prototypes were modified over time, the models are offered in both
As-Built and Amtrak versions with specific details and ends appropriate to
the era. Each ready-to-run model is complete with a full interior,
flush-fitting windows, wire grab irons, a removable roof with separate
details, working diaphragms and a complete underbody featuring diecast GSC
Commonwealth trucks with RP-25 metal wheels. Walthers swinging drawbar
system is standard equipment on all models to improve operation on small or
large curves. Working knuckle couplers and optional horn-hook couplers are
also included. Electrical pickups are already installed, which allows easy
installation of the snap-in Interior Lighting Kit (#933-1049, sold
separately) if desired. For longer trains or a larger fleet of cars,
numberboard decals are also provided.
PLEASE NOTE: As these cars are the correct prototype length and feature
full underbody detail to match the prototypes, a minimum 24" radius is
recommended for operation.
