Walthers HO Scale Milwaukee Road 1955 "Twin Cities Hiawatha" Streamlined Cars Assembled Pullman-Standard Super Dome No.50-59 Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this as a gift to go along with the famous Milwaukee Road Hiawatha Skytop Lounge Car with its distinctive rear dome (purchased elsewhere). Alternative couplings are included. I thought the car had a good level of detail, although the body is plastic, and it was much appreciated by the recipient, a model train enthusiast for several decades.
