Rapido is delighted to introduce the Super Continental Line Pullman-Standard lightweight Dining Car.  Eating lunk or supper [dinner] in the dining car was a much-loved activity on board most passenger trains in the 20th century.  Full diners could be found on day trains well into the 1960s all over North America.  They still remain a vital part of long-distance services from coast to coast to coast.

Rapido introduced the Super Continental Line in 2005 with the first models being the Lightweight Coach nad Duplex Sleeper.  Since then, Rapido has been improving their passenger car designs, culminating with the recent New Have stainless coaches and Budd Mid-Train dome cars.  Now they are bringing the design principles of their newer car models to the Super Continental Line.  That means this new Dining Car will feature rock-solid assembly and will track beautifully straight out of the box.

Rapido's HO Scale Dining Car is based on the prototype built for CN in 1954 and is similar in design to dining cars used by numberous railroads.  The model features:

     ►Full underbody detail including all separate piping
     48 seats, 40 seats, or diner-lounge multi-color interiors
