History
These metal body cars started production in the 1930s in North America, during the Great Depression. The Streamlined Era was in full swing, meaning everything was curvy and flowed. Passenger service wasn't the best on most railroads before these cars were introduced, many still used wooden body cars.

SP Stuff
I decided to make these after being inspired by two HO scale cars I have. They had to be shortened slightly to fit the railway maps, however they handle fantastic now. The dome car is about 200 parts, and the coaches are slightly less. The baggage car on the normal versions has a smaller part count than the coaches.

Drag has been disabled on everything above the frame to keep your PC from frying.

the IC one is the ugliest paint

Enjoy!
