Amtrak O Gauge RailKing 2-Car O-31 Amfleet Coach Set
Overview
Upon its creation in 1971, Amtrak inherited a motley collection of beat-up cars from the nation's former passenger carriers. With a mission to attract passengers back to train travel, one of Amtrak's first orders of business was to create a modern passenger fleet.
With a sleek, rounded body that looks more like an aircraft fuselage than a traditional passenger car, the first of nearly 650 new Amfleet cars was delivered in 1975, enabling Amtrak to begin retiring the so-called \"heritage fleet.\" Our Amfleet set replicates the diesel-powered Amfleet consists than can be seen almost anywhere that Amtrak goes, except the electrified portions of the Northeast Corridor. The Horn & Bell version of this set replicates the dramatic warning sounds of a modern diesel, and the Proto-Sound version features Proto-Speed control for smooth and constant speeds from a crawl to full throttle; remote coupler operation; and a full symphony of train sounds, from passenger station announcements to diesel sounds, wailing horn, and crew conversations.
Designed to bring authenticity and smooth performing operation to any O Gauge layout, modelers will find no finer O Gauge value than RailKing Passenger Cars.
