Sections The classic Pullman accommodation, the “section” of asleeping car was an open area with seats for daytime travel whichwere converted by a porter to an upper and lower berth. Later theywere modified to have curtains for privacy. This was the mostcommon way to travel on an overnight train during the heavyweightera.

Drawing Rooms The elite paid more for “drawing room” accommoda-tions, which featured an enclosed room with a small couch oppositea seating section. At night the seats were converted to upper andlower berths and the couch became a bed. These rooms were equippedwith a private lavatory.

Compartments The “compartment” was smaller than a “drawingroom” and didn’t have the sofa/bed.

Single Bedrooms These were small rooms with a single bed. Laterversions had a sofa which converted at night.

Double Bedrooms By adding a berth over the convertible sofa, thebedrooms evolved into double occupancy

The prototype for our model was built by Pullman, ACF, Standard Steel and others for the New York CentralSystem. Cars of essentially the same design were built for many other railroads coast to coast, and they servedmany years in a wide variety of services. These common cars have never been offered before in a plastic HO kit.

Following WWII the Railway Express Agency (REA) handled much of its express and parcels traffic in a varietyof wooden express reefers and baggage cars added to the front of passenger trains. In 1947 REA ordered fivehundred all new steel express cars from ACF. These cars utilizing welded construction and featured a new highspeed truck design. The cars were ice cooled, but the ice bunkers were of a collapsible design that folded outof the way when not needed. This allowed these cars to carry both loads that needed refrigeration as well asstandard parcels. These cars travelled from coast to coast on all major railroads.

When delivered REA’s cars were painted in a fancy silver and green scheme meant to blend with thestreamlined passenger cars then in vogue. After a short time in service the cars showed a tremendous amountof dirt and were quickly repainted into a variety of green paint schemes. The first of these was applied in 1949and carried only Dulux gold lettering. In 1952 the red and white “Railway Express Agency” diamond was added.This scheme was modified in the 1960’s with a more modern design logo and white lettering. These cars lastedin service until the coming of Amtrak.

Fifty similar carswere built for theAtlantic Coast Linerailroad at the sametime as REA’s cars.These were deliv-ered in a two-tonepurple and silverscheme that lastedinto the 1960’s. Af-ter 1960 the ACLpainted its carsgreen with silverlettering.

This is the first time these important cars have been available in an HO plastic kit.
