HO Scale Pullman-Standard Postwar 6-6-4 Sleeper

Pullman-Standard's Post-War 6-6-4 Sleeper was a vast improvement over its pre-war version. The bedrooms were now located in the center of the car for the most comfortable ride. Electrical systems and trucks were state-of-the-art for the 1950s and were light years beyond the cars delivered in the early 1940s.

The Rapido model is based on plan 4183A delivered to CN in 1954, which is very similar to plan 4183 delivered to L&N, C&EI and NCStL in 1953 and plan 4197 delivered to UP and WABASH in 1955.

These cars feature all-new tooling; completely new underbody arrangements; all separate brake, electrical and steam lines; fully detailed interiors with individually-molded seats and tables; several car names per paint scheme (no fiddly decals needed!); separate grab irons applied at the factory; etched metal end gates; separate marker lamps; trucks molded on all four sides; and battery-powered interior lighting. The other guys don’t even come close.

HO Scale Pullman-Standard Buffet-Parlor

Based on a Pullman-Standard prototype first built for the CN, the Buffet-Parlor Car and cars like it entered service over 50 years ago throughout the United States and Canada. Your passengers will be able to sit in rotating, reclining seats - sharing a pleasant conversation or reading the day's paper as the countryside rushes by.


In the mood for a sit-down meal? Well, a full-service dining area is just a few steps away. These cars were used on services that did not necessarily require a full-length diner, and are perfect to provide first class and dining services on your pike-sized passenger train.

HO Scale 38-Seat Club-Galley

CN rebuilt several of its parlor cars into Club cars with spacious 2+1 seating and delicious meals served from the on-board galley. (In Canada, "Club Car" means a first class coach, and "Lounge Car" means a club car.) A generation ago, the VIA/CN Club Galley was the finest way to travel on day trains in North America. Your HO scale Club Galley passengers will enjoy delicious hot meals served at their overstuffed, reclining chairs. Before dinner, they can enjoy a complimentary beer or cocktail. After the four-course meal, the Club Galley attendants will pamper your passengers with chocolates and liqueurs. Not a bad way to travel...
