Hi everyone.
I came across a hobby shop that was having a clearance sale on some Walthers passenger cars (932 series). He was selling some Penn Central Budd & Pullman (silver with the Penn Central letterboard) passenger cars and since I model PRR, NYC, NH, Amtrak transistion years, I wanted to try and put a Penn Central passenger train together.
This is what was available:
Pullman 64 seat Coach (silver)
Pullman 10-6 Sleeper(green)
Budd Grill Diner (silver)
Budd 52 seat Coach (silver)
Budd 29 seat Parlor car (silver)
Budd Observation car (silver)
Budd Dome Coach (silver)
Budd 73' Baggage car (silver)
B60b baggage car (green)
I Googled & Yahoo'd for pictures of a Penn Central passenger train consist to try and put something together but couldn't find anything (at least using the Walthers passenger cars).
I'm using a BLI PC GG1
Question: Anyone have any links to where I might some pictures and are the Walthers cars close to accurate?
I know IHC had PC passenger cars which I'm not sure are prototypical and I'm not sure when Rapido will release their PC Osgood Bradley passenger cars.
Any info appreciated and thanks in advance.
