All railroads had some cars in its passenger fleet that were used in
local or branchline service. Often these were older cars that had spent the prime of their life on the mainline "name train" inter-city service. Some
railroads like the C&NW, Southern Pacific, Pennsylvania, and Canadian Pacific had hundreds of cars in their commuter fleets.
No two railroads used exactly the same designs for their cars, and the
lengths of the cars varied as well. Also many cars were sold off as "hand me downs" to smaller roads to be used on mixed train branchline service. So
these cars could be at home on any prototype railroad, large or small.
We chose to model them as 65 Ft long cars, so they would run on 18 inch
radius curves of the average home layout. The time era for these cars stretched from the 1920's to well into the late 1950's.

Note on our "Solarium cars", shown above in the
Royal American Shows paint scheme. Solarium Cars have been
rarely modeled, and yet they were a very popular car during the heavyweight era. On some roads they were called "Solariums" and on other railroads "Sun
Room" cars, but all had the same features... Tall windows in the parlour area at the rear of the cars to bring in sunlight. The Pullman company built
untold numbers of them between 1928 and 1931. Most went into "Pullman" pool service, meaning they ran with the Pullman name on them and with Pullman
employees on board. Because they were Pullman owned cars, and only leased to the various railroads they often do not shown up on rosters of specific
railroads, but yet, here they were running at the end of many of the most famous heavyweight passenger trains. Many were built for specific railroads, so for
example you can find photos of them in books on the Burlington, Great Northern, Canadian Pacific just to name a few. Many changed hands over the years.
For instance, the four Solairum cars on the Burlington, were later sold to the Pennsylvania. Solariums were also used to provide first class service to
coach passengers on shorter inter-city runs.
The same fantastic car lighting system used on our HO mP54 series of cars
will also come built into this new series of B.C.S. series cars...

Royal American Shows was part Carnival and part Circus,
and as you can see they had a very striking color scheme on their railroad equipment. While "Circus" Modelers are a small segment of
the hobby of model railroading, almost any model railroad has room for a special excursion Circus Train. Royal American Shows did
not have their own locomtoives, and just paid the "charter" fees to have local railroads drag their train. So you can use any
motive power you like.
