The livery of Pullman green with gold piping was applied by the DNMP. The gold detailing faded over time so we created two versions of the entire set, gilt and normal.

Originally constructed by the St Charles Car Company as a passenger coach. Two (Moffat numbers 700 and 702) were converted to Cafe Parlor Observation Cars by the DNWP in October 1913.

These cars were equipped with air Westinghouse brakes and pullman trucks friction bearing four wheel trucks.

This fine model was created for the MOffat Road Project by the generous gift of Wayne Campbell, and are made to the exact specification of the orignials based on plans and photos obtained thru the gracious sharing of John Emmot of the DSLHS.

This model may not be used for any commercial purpose of any nature nor converted to any other format without the permission of the makers listed here. It is inteNded for use in MSTS and Open Rails and can be numbered as one of the two cars of this class with the enclosed freight animation shapes for which custom WAGS have been created. So the cars will show up in TRAINS folder as the car number specific for that car

This model is being released as a stand alone but it is also available as part of the entire set in two versions, gilt or weathered.
