Kit #4735 C&O Imperial Salon Coach Kit with internal ducts. Kit will include 3D printed sides and roofs, modified Branchline body, resin car ends and parts for detailing model. Wheel sets and couplers are not included.
Commissioned by C&OHS, Bethlehem Car Works has produced an accurate HO scale kit for the Imperial Salon coach. Roof and sides are 3D-printed in high impact plastic, and ends molded in cast resin from 3D masters to match the C&O prototype design. The carbody core and most detail parts are injection-molded styrene from the Branchline coach kit. Custom dulux-color Roman-font decals complete the kit’s basics. The sides feature the signature wide-spaced windows matching the Salons’ generous between-seat legroom, as well as the single offset window lighting the women’s lavatory. The tops of the ends are pedimented, a feature more typically found on Pullman sleepers than coaches.
