CN rebuilt several of its parlor cars into Club cars with spacious 2+1 seating and delicious meals served from the on-board galley. (In Canada, “Club Car” means a first class coach, and “Lounge Car” means a club car.) A generation ago, the VIA/CN Club Deluxe was the finest way to travel on day trains in North America. Your HO scale Club Deluxe passengers will enjoy delicious hot meals served at their overstuffed, reclining chairs. Before dinner, they can enjoy a complimentary beer or cocktail. After the four-course meal, the Club Deluxe attendants will pamper your passengers with chocolates and liqueurs. Not a bad way to travel…

Based on the CN Pullman-Standard prototype, the Grill-Parlor Car and cars like it entered service over 50 years ago throughout the United States and Canada. Your passengers will be able to sit in rotating, reclining seats – sharing a pleasant conversation or reading the day’s paper as the countryside rushes by.

In the mood for a sit-down meal? Well, a full-service dining area is just a few steps away. These cars were used on services that did not necessarily require a full-length diner, and are perfect to provide first class and dining services on your pike-sized passenger train.

Pullman-Standard’s plan 4183A Post-War 6-4-6 Sleepers were rated as some of the most comfortable sleepers that Pullman ever produced and proved very popular with overnight passengers wherever they operated. They were a vast improvement over the pre-war version because the bedrooms had been moved to the center of the car for the most comfortable ride. State-of-the-art electrical systems and trucks were also light years beyond the cars delivered in the early 1940′s making them popular with operating departments.

The Rapido model is based on plan 4183A delivered to CN in 1954, which is very similar to plan 4183 delivered to L&N, C&EI and NCStL in 1953 and plan 4197 delivered to UP and WABASH in 1955.

We have included all of the great features that you have come to expect from us, including:

Accurate dimensions
Full interior detail
