Final Review and Adjustment Corrections from John Emmot and Wayne Campbell

The livery of Pullman green with gold piping was applied by the DNMP. The gold detailing faded over time but this was the original livery in detail.

A Set of Alternative Textures are included for switching between the Gilt and Normal faded green.

Originally constructed by the St Charles Car Company as a passenger coach. This Observation Parlor car was used as such from the start of its being brought to the DNWP. It was a unique car shape and popular with tourists on the Arrow Turn and other Tourist specials. Another Observation car of the same type also existed, the No. 801 but with arched parlor style windows and a full kitchen array.

Both were often used by David Moffat on his trips along the line and to inspect work underway.

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

This car has platform windows that were specially extended to allow passengers to see the awesome views along the route.

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 originals 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. It was the only car of this class on the Moffat roster. Using 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.
