Relax in luxury aboard these WalthersProto Budd 85' Pine Series 10-6 Sleepers, a must-have for the combined Super Chief / El Capitan and other Santa Fe streamliners!

Many of these cars later served with Amtrak, and some are now privately owned. Ready for operation or display, features of this WalthersProto replica include:
