Walthers Update 96 - First look: all-new WalthersProto® HO C&O George Washington Name Train

The all-new WalthersProto HO Chesapeake & Ohio George Washington was one of the railroad’s flagships. We’ve captured this fine streamliner with newly tooled cars, accurate decoration and superdetailing. See the production samples and check out cars from the sold-out deluxe version here!

Perhaps reuse the lounge car tooling and introduce an as delivered scheme for Pere Marquette? Just think, anybody wanting to run an accurate consist, would need two for each train. ;)

Cool! See you guys there!

[@MaxSupercars]

They look great!

[@hestheMaster]

Love that new baggage car with the round roof. Make them happen in other roads for us non C&O modelers,please.

[@ronaldhowell7427]

N.Y.C. would be nice.

[@michaelmac2727]

Very nice looking cars. Only wish that the number board above the trucks was omitted or supplied as a separate piece (especially the coach), as a very credible DRGW stand-in could be modeled....

[@FlashJonesTrains]

Nice looking passenger cars. One day I'll have to get a few sets of passenger equipment. I'm going to continue to say it until we get it. Will you guys please make a run of the Gevos and ACes in your Walthers proto line. Please, please, please i know I'm not the only one who wants it. Please do this for the hobby and for us !

[@ronaldhowell7427]

Would have loved to see them in action going around your layout there.

[@PantherLineProductionsofOhio]

Have you guys ever given thought to doing the GM TOT (Train Of Tomorrow)? Would be a real neat deluxe train. I would definately buy it.

[@WmKWalthersIncMilwaukee]

Hi CN, nothing planned, but we'll pass along your suggestion, thank you!

[@ronaldhowell7427]

Zac love your shows. Thank you for keeping us up to date. I have a question. On your proto runs of the passenger cars. Is it possible to add on working diaphragms? Or at least add them in the box. Just asking.

[@WalthersModelTrains]

Hi Ronald, our WalthersProto passenger cars come equipped with working diaphragms.

[@ronaldhowell7427]

You guy's have working diaphragms on the old Broadway limited E8's and 7's. Just asking again.

[@nickbarman4145]

Are there any cnw passenger cars that you make I can never find any

[@WmKWalthersIncMilwaukee]

Hi Unknown, while they've all been discontinued, over the years we offered several HO Scale heavyweight and streamlined cars decorated for the CNW. An online search, a visit to train shows, or perhaps a "wanted to buy" post on one of the modeling forums might turn up some leads.

Wm. K. Walthers, Inc. ok thank you
