Sleeper Blue Rapids

In 1950 PRR took delivery of fourteen 10/6 Sleepers. Most were painted in Missouri Pacific’s Eagle scheme. Two were painted for the ‘Overland Route’ for transcontinental service. Delivered in the Two-Tone-Gray and later were painted in PRR’s Tuscan. According to the PRRT&HS, the Blue Rapids was assigned to the New York to San Francisco carried on PRR’s Admiral and then to the San Francisco Overland.

Blue Rapids was built by American Car & Foundry and we will call this a Classic version of this car. Our version will include the three inch full skirts that you see in this builders photo of the car!

Lowell, thanks to you and your company SP&S modelers (myself included) are having a much easier time modeling the North Bank Road. Thank you for your hard work!
