The Prototype:

Pennsylvania RR took delivery of these 44-seat long-distance coaches starting in 1947.  These 85-foot cars rode on four-wheel 2D-P15 trucks.  Cars built by American Car & Foundry were numbered in the 4068-4091 series.  A number of virtually identical cars were built by the Pennsy's Altoona shops and were numbered 4100-4169.

The Model:

This HO scale car is not just your typical model.  From it's highly detailed underframe (each Z-brace is a separate piece!), complete underbody detail, and the newly tooled metal 2D-P15 trucks - to the detailed body (complete with a readable trust plate!) this is one of the finest models ever produced.

These completely assembled cars feature:

        -  Complete underbody detail

        -  Kadee #26 couplers

        -  Die-cast metal trucks with 36" metal wheelsets

        -  Individual wire handrails

        -  Aluminum window trim

        -  Proper weight for reliable operation

        -  Twelve different road numbers!

        -  Laser-sharp paint and accurate Pennsylvania RR Keystone Herald.

 

Note: This car is recommended for use on curves of 26" radius or more.
