Kato 1560947 N Gallery Bi-Level Cab-Coach Virginia Railway Express #V716

The modern Nippon Sharyo-built Gallery Bi-Level is based off of the same concept as the original Santa Fe “El Capitan” Bi-level design concept, whose success went on to inspire such double decker cars as Amtrak’s Superliners and the Bombardier Bi-Level car which is also used in commuter service. Today, gallery Bi-Level cars such as those used by the Chicago Metra commuter service can be seen operating in several states across the United States, such as Virginia and California.

Model Features:

  • Bi-level cars with built-in electrical pickup are DCC friendly, with FR11 decoders available for optional 11-211/212 Interior Lighting Kits with LED.
  • Prototype details matching the specific cars made especially for Virginia Railway Express have been carefully reproduced.
  • Smooth rolling blackened metal wheels on all Bi-level cars with all-wheel electrical pickup.
  • Bi-Level cab coaches feature directional lighting for push-pull operation, with alternate illuminating headlight and taillights with an on/off switch for mid-train operation.
