Broadway Limited 9939 | Heavyweight Railroad Exhibit Car - Southern Railway #24 | HO Scale

Broadway Limited's HO scale heavyweight exhibit car in Southern Railway #24, finished in green, yellow, orange and white. Ready to run, and unlike anything else in a typical passenger consist. Exhibit cars were the railroad's public face, touring as travelling displays covering railroad history, safety awareness and career opportunities. Between them the two types covered both education and outreach, and they are among the most distinctive passenger cars ever built because each one was custom-made for its own job. Broadway Limited built these on the modified 80 foot coach tooling originally developed for the 1947 American Freedom Train. Because every real instruction and exhibit car was a one-off conversion, no model can copy one exactly. These capture the look and character of the type at a price that keeps them accessible.
