Western Trail’ – UP Sleeper

We have only a few of these cars available. This car was mostly sold in the ‘pair’ along with the car Western Wonderland.

Union Pacific ordered 12 cars from American Car & Foundry built with 12 roomettes and 4 bedrooms.  Delivered in 1949, these cars were given the prefix ‘Western’. In this same order were two cars for the C&NW and the Wabash ordering ten.  Four of the Wabash’s ten cars were used in the pool for the UP’s City of St. Louis while the other six Wabash cars were painted blue and used in other service.

One of UP’s 12 Western Series cars is Western Trail.

Ferdinand Magellan is great! This really fits your mission of offering significant cars that otherwise wouldn’t be produced.

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

“You seem to be the shining light in an industry that’s seen a lot of change since the early 2000’s when I was last in the hobby”.

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

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