When lightweight cars came to the Pullman fleet in the early 1940s, their
smooth sides lent themselves to classy, colorful paint schemes. Corrugated
stainless-steel sides, later added to match the look (and acknowledge the
competition) of Budd's stainless-steel cars, created a variety of cars that
ran on premier passenger trains.
Walthers Pullman-Standard passenger cars bring this variety to HO Scale
passenger trains with models matching the performance and detailing or our
popular Budd passenger cars. Walthers Pullman-Standard cars feature as many
as four body styles; smooth or fluted sides, with or without skirting as
appropriate for each roadname. They ride on GSC 41-N trucks with diecast
sideframes and blackened-metal wheelsets. Other features include
flush-fitting windows, full interiors, working diaphragms, magnetic knuckle
couplers and car number and name decals. The car bodies have molded-in
drill starter points that make installing the supplied wire grab irons
easier. All cars, unless noted, have built-in provisions for the Walthers
Passenger Car Interior Lighting Kits: DC Version 933-1049, $10.98, and DCC
Version 933-1084, $7.98 (both sold separately).
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.
