The Rapido Trains Inc. Duplex Sleeper
is everything you need for your overnight passengers, from your
branchline, backwater mail train to your hot Limiteds. It features the
three most common forms of overnight accommodation - open sections for
the budget-minded, roomettes for private day and night travel, and
double bedrooms with comfortable seats. Bedroom seats have see-through
armrests, and roomettes have curtains for privacy. Public restrooms at
the A end of the car include a vanity for the ladies and dental bowls
for hygiene.
The Duplex Sleeper
is Pullman plan number 4124, a CN and Great Northern prototype. Several
railroads throughout North America had similar duplex sleepers, and our
car is painted in a variety of paint schemes. The Duplex Sleeper
is available with partial skirting or with fixed steps, as appropriate.
Handy-dandy uncoupling levers and grab irons are installed at the
factory for the benefit of your maintenance crews.
All of our Super Continental Line passenger cars feature battery-powered interior LED lighting which is turned on and off by our Rapido Lighter,
essentially a magnet on a stick. Wave the Lighter over the AC hatch on
the roof, and the lights turn on. Wave it again, and the lights turn
off. No more coach yards filled with lighted cars draining your power
pack, and no more flicker! Each car comes with a Rapido Lighter and two
batteries.
Replacement batteries are available separately, as are lighting sets so you can upgrade your existing fleet. CLICK HERE for more information on Super Continental Line passenger car upgrades.
