Product Information:
Home-built from kits supplied by major car builders to replace its aging fleet of heavyweight caoches dating from the early teens and 1920s, the Pennsylvania's P85-series coaches were designed especially for service on long distance trains including The General and others. Comfortable reclining seats, large restrooms and air conditioning made them a favorite with passengers on a budget, or who were only traveling part way. Fully assembled and ready for service, these models are based on cars as they appeared in later years after the side skirts were removed for easier access to the underbody equipment.

One-time run of car numbers on factory-printed cars - order now, limited quantity available
