The model has metal wheels and accurate metal triple bolster trucks used on the prototoype of these cars. For anyone modeling the Southern Pacific, Union Pacific, Texas and New Orleans, Chicago and Northwestern (till 1955) or Milwaukee Road (after 1955) this car should be of interest.

While it probably wasn't used on the Sunset, into El Paso on the T&NO rails there was the Golden State, Imperial and the Argonaut which got any kind of coaches available. ) When I first saw It I almost passed it by because it is has the Cascade emblem, and I model the Coast Line.
