Product Description
Alaska Railroad Upper Level Platform car. Body only. Requires Alaska Railroad Ultradome Floor to complete. www.shapeways.com/product/WP32KLACG/1-160-alaska-railroad-ultradome-floor. Wheelsets and trucks not included. I used Microtrains 4-wheel Passenger Trucks #003 02 051 (1017), or if you want body mounted couplers use Rapido Passenger Car Trucks and Micro-Trains body mount couplers #1023 The story behind the model. No manufacture had made models of these Ultradome cars so I had to work out some other means of getting the train. I had the car designed for me by Inner-Leaf in England (adam@inner-leaf.com) so I could have one. I chose to leave the upper dome windows solid as on the cars they have several layers of window tint applied to shield the passengers from the sun and Ultra-violet rays. The lower windows only have a couple of layers of window tint, so I cut these out so you can see the interiors (if you want to add these features to your model) I have cast windows for the lower level windows – both clear and solid – that just press into place. These are available from me on request.
