This is a MTH 80-60021 HO New York Central 20th Century 1938 Passenger Car Set (Set of 5). Car names/numbers: RPO car - 5018, dormitory-lounge coach - Century Club, diner car - 680, 17 roomette sleeper car - City of Dayton, observation - Manhattan Island. While the Pennsy's rival Broadway Limited equaled the Twentieth Century's speed and accommodations, the Century was the clear winner in the public's eye, usually running in two sections to meet demand while the Broadway ran with empty seats. 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 Café 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. Its key features are: Durable ABS intricately detailed bodies Metal wheels and axles Overhead interior lighting Detailed 4-wheel trucks Authentic paint scheme End-of-car diaphragms Separate metal handrails Detailed car interiors Kadee-compatible couplers Detailed car undercarriage 5-car sets feature: one RPO car, one Dormitory-lounge coach, one 17 Roomette sleeper car, one Diner car, one Observation car Unit measures: 11 1/2 x 1 7/16 x 1 7/8 Operates on 22 radius curves
