Great layout and nice video. This is how a video should be presented, NOBODY TALKING IN THE BACKGROUD and good use of mise en scène.

My mistake, late 60's...

Walthers 1960? Didn't the PRR cease to exist by the late 50's?

The F-unit A-B-B-A lashup looks fabulous. I greatly admire F-units...and the layout is very nicely done. I like the trackwork. 👍

I give that two thumbs up😊

I have 3 of these passenger cars I acquired through a friend . And the engine similar to yours but mines got the cab on bothe ends.

Really excellent video with great audio 👍🏻

Thanks.

Having grown up in California from age 7 in 1967, I've always been an SP fan. It would be cool to build a correct late era SP Coast Starlight or Owl but it seems brass passenger cars would be need for much of it. I have the Genesis version of the FP7's, including #6447 which also pulled CZ cars just before the Rio Grande Zephyr was inititiated.

Very Cool!!! Needs more Santa Fe!!

It took me awhile to find the right passenger cars, sleepers and the dorm but here is another one from my collection. I still got alot more trains coming!

Now that is down right awesome I need to build me a set of that now

did u light the city of sign in the back

Fantastic video. True to life. I love it. How big is the layout?

Ho Hum.Yet another video on this train where the the consist is done incorrectly!

Gorgeous

Since I am 72 years old I remember the times that my family traveled from Los Angeles California to Cleveland Ohio by train in the early 1960s. On the part of the trip from Los Angeles to Chicago our family road on the Santa Fe El Capitan with the Hi-Level cars. These railroad passenger cars by Santa Fe have disappeared into the past.

That's realistic nice train! ❤

Whats the Part Number from Walthers please?

Great video! Also a PRR fan, glad to see a full consist running. Nice job on the drumhead and marker lights. One improvement for a great visual effect, add a full width diagram in between the diner and kitchen Cars. The Coach Yard has these, the only thing you will have to check is the curve radius of the track you are running on, these diaphragms will be very close. Again great job.

What a great looking layout and the le Captain is one of the greatest looking passenger trains

Got a few more train set to crank out but I know all my pennsy fans will enjoy this one!

Someday I will have this train too.

To bad it takes 2 years to get all of the cars.

First step to more realistic modeling is to remove the lights from inside the cars. Unless you run trains in the dark, brightly lit passenger cars spell "toy trains." Then add window shades.

Beautiful consist - as a frequent rider of the Capitol Limited between Garrett, IN, Akron, OH and Chicago, I have to take exception to your train make up. B&O ran the Columbian coach equipment on the head end of the train, including the coach dome car. The twin unit dining cars were normally in the middle of the train separating coach and Pullman. The rear of the train would be all Pullman. B&O only owned three Pullman dome cars, one on each of the Capitol Limited equipment sets and one operating every other day on one side of The Shenandoah's equipment. There could be a 'Slumbercoach' within the Columbian equipment, but only one. The Pullman section of the train could contain one or more 'Bird' cars (Pullmans named for birds) which, I think, were 21 Roomette Pullmans. The square end Observations Napanee and Wawasee were the regulars. The train would have a different configuration East of Willard, OH where the Ambassador was switched into and out of the Capitol. The Ambassador was destined Detroit.

Very cool video Tim and sorry for your loss

It been a minute, more vids are coming but sadly had to deal with the passing of a family member

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Would it be fair to call this a Broadway Limited import? ;)

bro I wanted to see how much the Athearns SDP45's cost only to find out they retired them😭

Excellent presentation my friend, I own many of the same pieces, but you figured out a way to install a red warning in the Observation Dome. Outstanding work inspiring me to do the same in all my Walther's Dome Observations. Point of accuracy, The Dome Observation Lounges only lasted about a year (1955-1956) at the end of the COLA. They were then shopped with a diaphragm being installed and the rear windows blanked (Plates welded over) for mid-train operation. Walthers has also produced this "Mid-train Dome Lounge". Suggest you obtain this car to improve the "1960" accuracy. The car then ran approximately the middle of the train coupled to the Dome Diner. The Dome Observation Lounges were not returned to their original appearance/configuration until the 80's - not all were returned. Thanks again for a Great Effort!!!

Was it a C&O practice to run a head-end car on the rear of their psgr trains?

What method have you found to best remove the Walthers roofs from their streamlined psgr cars w/o breaking off the plastic clips holding the roofs to the top of the car body? Excellent video............

I'd love to know if there's a printout of this consist

From 1937 to 1953 it took atsfs passenger trains as far as Chicago Illinois to La Junta Colorado then was retired and scraped sometime in late 1956 to early 1957 its an icon of atsf steam

Took me a minute to get the passenger cars together but I was building another train while getting this one together. Please enjoy the video. I will be making one more Super Chief video for a fellow member we lost last year. 😢

That's a lot of cars Kudos to Walthers for bring a great name train to life

how many cars make up this consist

I like how SP and ATSF get shit for "shouldn't paint so fast" meanwhile GN just gets away with introducing a completely new scheme three years before a planned merger.

😍😍😍😍

Get your horn sounds right! The Daylight PAs originally had Wabco E-2 horns as shown on your model Jim Evans, Five Chime Consultants

Big WoooW!!!,... Spectacular videos of the main American classics, each and every one of them more than complete, including their long consist formations and great histories,.... it's a shame you couldn't have other famous and important ones such as: the'' Champion'' / '' H.Flagler' 'of the Atlantic Coast Line railways'', or the''Silver Meteor'' /''Silver Star'' of the Seaboard Railways, maybe some ''R.F &P''...among others!!!,... just like everything you have here is a pure Classics jewel and very rich in history'',... thank you S.Takuma''

Saw the cap and chief in Chicago many times, arriving from California it was always kinda dirty looking but when it left Chicago it look like they wax those cars, they serviced it in china town in Chicago 22nd street, then backed it into Dearborn station, to see it leaving Chicago all shinny was stunning, and those warbonnet's, I didn't know what looked better, the empire builder, panama limited over at 12th street, or the north coast limited, my favorite was them warbonnet's 👌👌 Atchison, Topeka, & Santa fe

The MIGHTY Union Pacific, they didn't call it that for nothing

If my train had that many cars the end of rhe car would meet the front of the train on my little layout

I wish they could be driven on Roco R4/5.

I have the Mainline Cars and there is sooo much Space between the Cars :(

I love the model of the Shasta Daylight!

How’s it going down at the ol’ TNMRC
