Product Information:


A key part of Union Pacific's public relations programs, 48 historic passenger cars and three E9 diesels make up part of the famed Heritage Fleet. Many were originally purchased for the City Streamliners, and have been carefully restored and updated to full operating condition. Today, they're finished in a modern Armour Yellow scheme, and the cars carry names of important cities, famous trains and key people in the railroad's long history. In service, these rolling goodwill ambassadors travel system-wide and beyond, behind UP's restored steam and diesel locos, to attend a wide range of public and special events every year.

Early or Late lettering schemes as noted in two versions
Factory-printed name with number decal for pre-1987 cars
Factory-printed name and UPP number for post-1994 cars
Factory-installed LED interior lighting
Factory-installed grab irons
Prototypically accurate window tinting and gaskets as appropriate
Modeler-installed extended drawbars for 22" radius curves included
Correct 36" RP-25 metal wheelsets
Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers


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.

Delivered new in 1954 from American Car & Foundry with seating for 44, the car is currently named for a Missouri Pacific train running between St. Louis and various Texas cities from 1915 to 1948 when the new "Texas Eagle" took over its route.
