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!

Thank you for all that you do for the N Scale community. Your products by far, in my opinion, are the top of the line when it comes to N Scale Trains and I am always on the lookout for them when they come up for auction.

What a trip! We had a great time- exceeded our expectations by a mile. The Silver Lariat was simply stunning. A gem on the rails. The scenery and weather were perfect. The delays were not an issue for us at all. All just a good days work on the railroad! Thank you for all the…
