MTH 20-4118 PRR Madison 2-car Diner and Combine passenger set
This MTH set was first introduced in 1997. The cars feature diecast trucks (not sprung), basic underbody details and silouette window strips. These cars did not have interiors. The interior lighting uses incandescent bulbs.
Note: The "combine" included in this set is identified as an RPO. This car is not the same as other later issued MTH combines or RPOs produced by MTH.
Photo of a typical prototype railroad "combine" car is shown with side door and step.
My intention is to use these cars with other later models of MTH Madision cars (most include interiors). This particular set will be modified to remove the window strips and lighting and then upgrade to a new interior floor, overhead interior LED lighting and clear plastic window strips. The interior of the combine will also have a partitions.
Photos show the original cars (before modifications).
