The 8 section - 1 drawing room - 2 compartment sleeper was one of Pullman's most popular designs. In 1937 there were 243 cars built to plans 3979a alone. Nearly half of these cars were used in Pullman pool service nation wide, the rest were assigned to, and painted for, various railroads nationwide. These models feature correct air-conditioning parts and full lettering inclding car names.

The coach was the backbone of the American passenger car fleet. These cars were used on long and short haul trains, through trains and commuter runs alike. The prototype for our model was built by Pullman, ACF, Standard Steel and others for the New York Central System. Cars of essentially the same design were built for many other railroads coast to coast, and they served many years in a wide variety of services.

The 10 section - 1 drawing room - 2 compartment design was one of Pullman's 3 most popular sleeping car configurations with over 260 cars built to plan 3585 and its derivatives. After the 1948 break up of Pullman many of them were sold to various railroads nationwide, where they continued into service into the 1960's. These models feature correct air-conditioning parts and accurate paint, lettering and names.

If there was a “Mother of all Pullmans”, this would be it…. The 12 section - 1 drawing room design of plan 3410/3410a was the single most popular Pullman floor plan with over 920 cars built. Putting this in perspective, that’s more than the total number of 3000 series plan 8-1-2, 10-1-2, 14 section and 10-1-1 sleepers built – combined!

The 14 section Pullman offered some of Pullman’s least expensive accommodations. Carrying just sections consisting of upper and lower berths, these cars were popular were several railroads with 208 cars being built to plans 3958 and 3958a.

The 6 compartment - 3 drawing room cars of plan 3523 and 3523a were an unusual all-room design that found favor on many long distance trains, particularly between New York and Florida. The 6-3’s had an unusual window arrangement with 12 small, single windows along one side and numerous tightly packed paired windows on the other. Many of these cars were named after famous composers and authors.

The prototype for our paired window coach model was built for the Chesapeake & Ohio
RR. Cars of essentially the same design were built for many other railroads coast to coast, and they served many years in a wide variety of services.
