CITY OF SAN FRANCISCO

| Pricing | To Challenger Bulletin | To Bulletin Index | To Home Page |



Yellow and gray elegance.  Challenger's City of San Francisco will be a mix of ACF and Pullman cars just as in the prototype.  Different than any prior portrayals of these trains, our trains are portrayals of the re-equipped consists as they were at the beginning of the 1950's.  The pinnacle of service operating on the Overland Route from Chicago to the West Coast on a highly competitive route, these trains are well noted for having outlasted their principal competitors.  For the serious modeler / hobbyist, no train could have greater significance.
