These models are PRR Congressional reskins of the freeware G-TraX 4-Pack Lightweight Passenger Cars by Harry R. Adkins. Included cars are the Baggage, RPO, Coach, Diner, Sleeper01 and Sleeper02 (observation). At this time, observation cars were not permitted in Washington Union Terminal.

The PRR purchased sixty new streamlined cars from the Budd Company in 1952. The cars were used on the "Congressional" and also on "The Senator", a Boston - Washington "limited" that was shared with the New Haven Railroad. These handsome stainless-steel cars with Tuscan red trim were assembled into train sets of coaches, parlor cars, dinning cars and squared-ended observation cars.

Thanks, Harry.

These cars are supposed to be pulled by the silver GG1 from the workshop?

Any chance of you doing some general service PRR smooth side passenger cars in tuscan red?

Or even the handsome tuscan/maroon smooth sided cars witn gold trim in art deco style of the late 30's?
