I have just received my new Amtrak Streamliner sets from RMT. Set 1 consists of Baggage and Coach cars, and Set 2 consists of Dome and Observation cars. I have not yet installed the diaphragms, but I think they still look wonderful. Hats off to Walter and his crew. They are well worth the wait. I am not the best photographer, but here they are on my Christmas window layout.

that kind of a nice set. It looks good behind a BEEP, too, which at first surprised me, but it all comes together nicely.
Nice train.
Walter has some nice products there.
Are these Streamliners manufactured from the former K-Line Streamline molds and tooling ?
Yes they are, but they were updated in 1996 and new lighting and details
were added.
Currently available to order on RMT website along with ALASKA, NY CENTRAL, PRR, B&O, TEX SPL, SANTA FE and NORFOLK SOUTHERN.
RickoIII...enjoy the cars and thank you for your patience.
Thanks.

Hi Walter • A You Tube friend of mine, Guss's Channel from WV, talks about the RMT Trains and even you. I do like these passenger cars. I will have to add this to my model train bucket list. Guss calls this video,"For Walt at RMT"
Cheers from Michigan
Have you any updates when the NYC passenger cars will be in country?
Thanks,
Curt
Wow, they look pretty nice. I might have to get a set of the Amtrak ones.

juniata guy...NYC passenger cars are STO items. Only bring in whatever cars are ordered. If you have already ordered, the first batch is here and being shipped with another 3 container shipments coming in. Each has NYC cars.
If you have not ordered yet, you need to do this soon.
Thanks.
Walter/RMT
I sent an order in right before Christmas so, hopefully my NYC cars are in the current shipment.
Thanks,
Curt
Walter, do you require payment with an order? And if so, does the fact you only produce what is ordered mean that one pays and then waits for the item to be made and shipped to you for shipment to the customer? Thank you.
Rick III, is the lighting LED or incandescent? Bob S.
When I saw the pre production cars at York I was very impressed with the quality of the paint and graphics. First rate. The diaphrams and interiors are icing on the cake.
Walter, any chance of doing cars for the Post War Alcos like the Erie and Rock Island?

chris dunn...Yours on next inbound container due next week.
Thanks.

Norton...new roadnames always a possibility but not until 2016 at earliest.
Thanks.
Walter/RMT
Chris Dunn...STO means Ship-To-Order. RMT will only bring into USA product that is ordered by customer. Product is already made at factory. Order online now and your product ships on next available container for expected 4-6 week arrival.
This is only way RMT accepts orders at this time for items on STO program.
Containers leave factory about every 2 weeks.
Thanks.
Walter/RMT
Just ordered a B&O set, two plus two. If I understand it correctly, I can expect them in 6 weeks.
Rick III, is the lighting LED or incandescent? Bob S.
I got the Texas Special set a while back when it was on a big sale. Lighting is incandescent.
