Bringing Commuter trains home to N scale

Along with new individual car releases for the N Scale Bi-Level Gallery Cars, this release of Three Car Sets in both Chicago Metra and Virginia Railway Express will allow modelers to build and safely store their own Commuter Trains. Foam inserts on these bookcase sets can be removed to hold a total of 5 Bi-levels and two locomotives perfect for building your own commuter train set with the available individual Cars and New F40PH or MP36PH Commuter locomotives!

Gallery Bi-Level Coaches and Cab Coaches

The modern Nippon Sharyo-built Gallery Bi-Level is based off of the same concept as the original Santa Fe El Capitan Bi-level design concept, whose success went on to inspire such double decker cars as Amtraks Superliners and the Bombardier Bi-Level car which is also used in commuter service. Today, gallery Bi-Level cars such as those used by the Chicago Metra commuter service can be seen operating in several states across the United States, such as Virginia and California.

Model Features:

All cars and locomotives are DCC friendly, with FR11 decoders available for optional 11-209/210 Interior Lighting Kits with LED.
Bi-Level cab coaches feature directional lighting for push-pull operation, with alternate illuminating headlight and taillights with an on/off switch for mid-train operation.
Smooth rolling blackened metal wheels on all Bi-level cars with all-wheel electrical pickup.
