HO Scale Comet III Commuter Cab Cars

These cars were designed as improvements on the successful Comet I and II designs used by several commuter agencies on the East Coast of the USA. Externally, they differ mainly in having center doors for passenger loading and unloading. These cab cars are operated in the NY/NJ metro area, and differ in some body and underbody details. Metro-North refers to the cars as Shoreliners. We are producing two different versions for both states' operations.

These cars are available now in complete body kits (less trucks). You will need paint and decals for your chosen roadname.

FEATURES:
*One-Piece Body Shells (two different shells for NJ or NY version)
*One-Piece Frame with accurate features and details for both versions (it's not just a copied stock Walthers frame)
*GSI General 70 inboard-bearing trucks
*Flush-Fitting black plastic window inserts
*Stepwells included for both Long and Short door versions
*Tubular Diaphragms
*Minimum Radius 22"
*Masters made for us by the late Mr. Frank Cicero of New York
