Description

Southern Pacific ‘Chair Car’ #2380

Built in 1949 by Pullman-Standard, this car number 2380 was one of two ‘chair cars’ ordered by the Southern Pacific to be assigned to The City of San Francisco.

(Some railroads used the word ‘Chair Car’ and others used the word ‘Coach’, but all mean the same.)

When delivered, it was given the Armor Yellow and Harbor Mist Gray scheme that Union Pacific insisted be used on their ‘City’ trains.  It was also delivered with skirts which were later removed.

More can be read about these cars in the book Union Pacific’s Streamliners by Kratville and also in the Pullman Standard Library Volume 14.

This is a Classic version of these cars and has skirts.

 

There is one SP road number being produced at this time.

See the City of San Francisco Coach Fleet 2,  for special pricing on both the SP & UP coaches!

Nothing better than receiving that white box from Lowell Smith.

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…

I am speechless!  The AFT Showcase car is everything I hoped it would be; and more.

Thank you for producing such well researched quality offerings.

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.

And as for your goal of 5 releases a year, I admire your ambition, but I won’t hold it against you if you fall short on that accomplishment.  I’m just thrilled you’re doing such an AWESOME job of releasing this amazing train, and hope you don’t stop until it’s all done!

You know I’m always looking forward to the next release and its arrival with great anticipation. I treasure my Lowell Smith Signature collection.

I received my observation/business car today and – like all of my other cars from you – I love it!

To say the least this is a HUGE development for N-scale and I, along with a number of others, are indebted to you for making these cars possible. Thanks so very much!!!

Thank you ever so much for being such an integral part of the model railroading hobby!
