This is a WalthersProto 920-18700 HO Scales 85′ ACF Dome Lounge – Lighted – Ready to Run – UP Heritage Series Union Pacific(R) City of San Francisco. A key part of Union Pacific’s public relations programs, 48 historic passenger cars and three E9 diesels make up part of the famed Heritage Fleet. Many were originally purchased for the City Streamliners, and have been carefully restored and updated to full operating condition. Today, they’re finished in a modern Armour Yellow scheme, and the cars carry names of important cities, famous trains and key people in the railroad’s long history. In service, these rolling goodwill ambassadors travel system-wide and beyond, behind UP’s restored steam and diesel locos, to attend a wide range of public and special events every year. * Perfect For Fan Trip & Excursion Service * Modern-Era UP Excursion Scheme * Factory-Installed LED Lighting * Factory-Printed Car Names * Includes Car Numbers & UPP Reporting Mark Decals to Model Later Versions * Factory-Installed Grab Irons * Prototypically Accurate Window Tinting * Proto MAX(TM) Metal Knuckle Couplers. PLEASE NOTE: As these cars are the correct prototype length and feature full underbody detail to match the prototypes, a minimum 24 radius is recommended for operation. As UP transformed its Streamliners into Domeliners in 1955, 15 new Dome-Lounge Observations were delivered to bring up the rear of the flagship streamliners. Within a year however this proved to be a problem. The cars quickly lost their unique ends and were rebuilt as Dome-Lounges. Named for the famed UP-SP-CNW Streamliner, the prototype has its original windows and lighting for use at the end of the train.
