These cars have been in service on the Alaska Railroad starting
in 1987. Rebuilt 1986-1994 and with the earlier rebuilds done again in
1995-1996.
Set up with 66 forward facing, booth and side facing seats upstairs
and 22 dining room seats and kitchen downstairs, these cars were in daily summer
time service through the 2003 season. These cars are considered by many to be
the premium heritage equipment in operation today.
There are only 17 of these cars in existence and only two in private (non railroad)
ownership outside of our fleet. This is a rare opportunity. These cars are excellent touring cars
but would be a great addition to any train.
Features:
FRA compliant with Part 223 glass and emergency windows.
Carrier/Sutrak A/C
HEP
27 pin
Generators
Holding tanks
Six wheel trucks
EEs
Priced at $500,000-$550,000 each depending on specifications/condition. Spares available. Available
