Model Railroading > Pacific Parlour Cars - Paint Scheme DatesDate: 09/21/17 14:24 Pacific Parlour Cars - Paint Scheme Dates Author: RyanWilkerson I'd like to model the Amtrak Pacific Parlour Car in the 1990-96 range. Would they have been in Phase III? Others?
Looking to pick one of the car #s with some photos taken during those dates so I can figure out the decals. 39970 39972 39973 39974 39975 From: http://www.pacificparlourcar.com/ Thanks!

I found the later scheme (1997+) set: HO 87-4314 and N 60-4314.

For a while there, they ran all over the west substituting for Superliner Lounges. After the delivery of the Superliner II's?

I can't answer your question but there is info about them being rebuilt at some point. I'm interested to know too. Ryan Wilkerson Fair Oaks, CA |
