Regularly assigned to The General and other Pennsylvania Railroad streamliners, these cars featured a small kitchen and dining area for 16 passengers, a lounge area for 27 and a traditional observation area that could set 10 patrons. Unlike most trains however, this car was handled at the front of The General, and faced backward for the entire trip east or west, serving as a buffer between coaches and head-end traffic. Features of this WalthersProto replica include:

• All-new tooling, first time in plastic
• One-time run of car numbers on factory-printed cars - order now, limited quantity available
• Factory-installed grab irons

• Superb detail inside and out

PLEASE NOTE: As these cars are the correct prototype length and feature full underbopdy details to match the prototypes, a minimum 24" radius is recommended for operation.
