Description

The New York Central had dining cars from Budd, AF&C & Pullman that were used in general service throughout the NYC System. In later years, these cars replaced the twin-unit diners on many trains.

Originally delivered in the all silver scheme, our version is the later of the distinctive dark gray lettering boards with the NYC lettering in the light gray.

This RailSmith fluted diner will be a stand in, and a very good one we think, for a NYC fluted diner.

RailSmith is happy to bring another never-before-produced car to N Scale.

We will call this, a classic version of this car, and we know that ‘Central’ fans will be glad to get a car they thought they would never see!

For more information, talk to our friends at the NYC Historical Society.

I am looking forward to many more releases in the new year. I stayed up really late on Christmas to talk to Santa when he came by our house. I asked him for an n-scale SP&S 700, and he said that was out of his league and I’d better call you.

I just received the “The Great Locomotive Chase” set from the Walt Disney Family Museum. Very nicely done!
