Product Description

--Standard passenger car for Amtrak long-distance trains

Amtrak's Superliner passenger cars are a collective term for the two-story passenger cars that have been manufactured since 1979 and are characterized by their beautifully balanced formations.
The bi-level structure houses the main guest rooms and hallway on the second floor, and the entrance, toilet, shower room, etc. on the first floor.
With the introduction of the Superliner, Amtrak passenger cars, most of which had previously been carried over from the old road names, were suddenly unified.
They carry the names of famous trains of the past, such as the Empire Builder, California Zephyr, and Chief, and are still in use today on transcontinental trains.

This time, KATO USA will be producing the Diner (dining car) and Sleeper (sleeping car) with changed car numbers.
The Sleeper #32009 `George M Pullman` is nicknamed after George Mortimer Pullman, a famous businessman in American railroad history, and it is noteworthy that the nickname is also written on the car body.
Pullman is known as the man who developed the luxury sleeping car, the Pullman car, and brought about a major revolution in rail travel in the late 19th century.
