Here is a MTH 80-60023 HO New York Central 1938 Sleeper Passenger Car Set (Set of 2). Car names: 10-5 sleeping car. Cascade Glory, 13 bedroom sleeping car: Cook County. In styling the interiors for the 1938 Century, Henry Dreyfuss made frequent use of subdued blues and grays and leather seating – creating an elegant setting to complement the exciting clientele that frequented the Century, a favorite of movie and theatre people and businessmen on the rise. One highlight was the dual-purpose dining cars, whose white linens were replaced with rust-colored table cloths when the cars became the Caf Century night club after dinner.
The exterior styling of the cars, however, with blue, white, and gray striping, was soon perceived as too busy. By 1940, the train had been repainted in an improved, slightly simpler scheme that eliminated the blue accents. New for 2009, M.T.H. announces accurate models of the last steam-hauled Centuries, in both the original 1938 and revised 1940 paint schemes.
