Based on the 1956 consist with its unique Hi-Level cars, the new HO Scale El Capitan has built-in appeal - and these cars can also be run with Walthers Super Chief, just as the Santa Fe did after 1958!

The El Capitan set of cars and engines is complete with all the cars used on the prototype, including Baggage Car, Railway Post Office, Baggage-Dormitory "transition car" with rooftop shroud, Hi-Level 68-Seat Step-Down Coach, Hi-Level 72-Seat Coach, Hi-Level "Sky Lounge," Hi-Level Diner, and Hi-Level 68-Seat Step-Down Coach with Tail Sign to bring up the rear.

Walthers is also producing new PROTO 2000 37-Class F7s which are perfect for El Capitan and the Super Chief. Finished in Santa Fe's classic Passenger Warbonnet scheme and highlighted by a plated metal finish, choose Sound and DCC versions with full-function Tsunami decoders, or Standard DC models, each with multiple unit numbers, to meet your needs.

With this many choices, Walthers is producing enough rolling stock and motive power to build a complete train of your choice.

When Walthers announced this project, they also announced a limited edition, 9 car deluxe set. Supplies of the deluxe set were limited and we sold ours out in a few days. The same occurred at Walthers. We have had customers who missed out on this set ask how they might be able to get it, or something including all the items. We have spoken to Walthers, and we have arranged a special package deal for our customers.

We have created a special product listing for the twelve cars in the full train consist, along with the packages of passengers and lighting kits that are factory installed in the deluxe set. This allows the customer to install the accessories and have a train very similar to the deluxe edition, but with all 12 cars in a prototypically accurate full consist.

If purchased individually, the retail cost of all items in this set would be $1299.48. However, we will be offering this set at $1039.58, 20% off retail price to all customers. As with almost everything we sell, there is no deposit necessary on this item. However, if you would like to place a 50% deposit on this set, we will cut the price to $974.61. And if you would like to pay in full, we will lower the price to $909.64. Customer should indicate if they would like 20% or if they would like to make a 50% deposit, or pay in full during checkout in the "notes" box.

As an added bonus if you reserve your set before August 30, 2011, you will receive the special El Capitan memorabilia set Walthers is producing for full sets.

And don't forget, Walthers is also producing the matching EMD F7's that pulled this train. So, you can build the complete consist outlined above with this one round of product releases from Walthers. If you are a Santa Fe fan, your train has arrived!
