WALTHERS PROTO 2000 NEW YORK CENTRAL "20TH
CENTURY LIMITED" (ULTIMATE SET) w/Sound & DCC
FOUR LOCOMOTIVES AND TWENTY ONE CARS
No other train fired the imagination of the
American public like New York Central's 20th Century Limited. Its exclusive
clientele and blistering schedule between New York and Chicago made it the
stuff of legends for 65 years. A favorite with business and industry leaders,
its luxurious accommodations - including a red carpet on the platform at New
York - also attracted stars of stage and screen, further fueling the train's
celebrity status and romantic image.
New equipment finally arrived from
Pullman in 1948, supplemented by refurbished 4-4-2 sleepers and RPOs from the
1938 trains. Painted in a new version of the two-tone gray scheme, sleepers and
observations were named for various bodies of water in salute to the "Water
Level Route" slogan. Up front, matched sets of EMD E7s provided 4000 horsepower
to meet the 16-hour westbound, 15-1/2 hour eastward schedule.
