For portions of its run, the "Empire Builder" traveled on the rails of the Burlington (between Chicago to St. Paul) and the Spokane, Portland & Seattle (between Spokane and Portland), and some of the cars were actually owned by these railroads. All of this equipment was painted and lettered to match the "Empire Builder," but carried small sub lettering for the CB&Q or the SP&S.
Like the prototypes, this series of models is painted to match Walthers "Empire Builder" cars (#932-9031 - 932-9040) making it easy to model a complete, authentic consist. Each includes decals to add your choice of SP&S or CB&Q marks as desired.
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.
