Northern Pacific Railroad sleeper car model
from TexNrails
Running on 6-wheel passenger trucks, the prototype was built by the Pullman Car Company in the early 1920s for Northern Pacific as “Chief Arlee.” It was later re-painted in the classic two-tone green paint scheme developed by Raymond Loewy in the 1950s. Even though NP began to replace aging heavyweights with lightweight cars, this car continued to serve NP through the mid-1960s in a standby capacity.
