Walthers will be producing the last edition of the Santa Fe's Super Chief. The cars they will be producing will include a baggage car, the ACF RPO car, a Pine Series Budd 10-6 sleeper, either the Pullman Standard or ACF Regal Series 4-4-2 ( 4 compartment, 4 double bedroom 2 drawing room )sleeper, a 1339 Series Pullman Standard Lounge Dorm, 600 Series Pullman Standard Diner, 500 Series Pullman Standard Pleasure Dome and 4-1 (4 Compartment 1 Drawing Room) ACF Regal Series Lounge OBS. This is the 1950 edition. For the sixties, you will need 2 Pine Series 10-6 sleepers, and 2 Regal Series sleepers, the Pleasure Dome and the 600 Series Diner. Also, 11 Bedroom Indian Series Sleepers (rebuilt from Pullman Standard 24 Roomette) sleepers and ACF 10-6 Palm Series sleepers. The first cars mentioned will be produced by Walthers in 2004 in plastic. For the last two series, you will need brass cars by The Coach Yard (especially for the 11 Bedroom Sleeper).To get a plausable Palm Series 10-6 sleeper, you can use Concors 10-6 sleeper and exhange the Budd roof with a Pullman Standard roof. The car won't be accurate as the roomettes should be on the vestibuile end of the car. For Locomotives, you can use Athearns FP-45s or the Genesis F-7s in passenger warbonnet scheme. The FP-45s would be used if modeling that late 60's. No baggage cars would be used, as the train was combined with the Hi-Level equipped El-Capitan. good luck modeling, Ch
