This is Kato 35-6083 HO Amtrak Superliner I Sleeper PhIVb #32032. Delivery of the original Superliner 1 cars began in 1979 with the first cars operating on short runs originating in Seattle and Chicago. As more cars arrived, entire Superliner trainsets replaced trains on existing Western routes. The height of a Superliner generally precludes its operating in the Northeast because of tunnel clearance concerns. Sleeper cars, as the name implies, consist of a combination of bedrooms and roomettes to allow passengers (for a fee) to book their own rooms for longer trips. Its key features are: Most current Amtrak paint scheme All details factory installed Metal weights give prototypical heft and momentum Optional included Kinematic couplers allow prototypical close coupling while still navigating tight radii Fully detailed interiors behind flush, tinted windows that can be illuminated by the Kato 7-504 Ver. 2 interior lighting kit Free rolling, detailed trucks with rotating bearing caps and shock-absorber construction Manufacturer: Kato.
