| To see the prototype for
all Walthers cars, check this
link. Walthers re-entered the Heavyweight
car market in 2004. Several of these cars are of interest for ATSF fans, though
at present no one has produced the hallmark steam ejector air conditioning required
for those owned by ATSF. Many of line cars were common on the Grand
Canyon and other trains.
We have
also begun a review of the vintage metal heavyweight cars produced by Walthers
in the 1960-70s. See the catalog here.

Fe Style Coach | Released in April,
2006 (932-10351). Produced in 3 ATSF paint schemes. Air conditioned, based on
3060-3069 coaches. They are virtually identical to the earlier 3050-3059, with
the exception of the underbody. The 3060-series had a pressurized water tank between
the battery boxes, while the 3050-series had overhead water tanks and thus no
underbody tank, with the battery boxes side-by-side in the middle. The cars have
the "big" windows, with no upper transom window. The chair cars are
externally identical to the 2950-2959 series Smokers, 3100-3109 Chair Smokers. | Santa
