Hello Bobz,

Re: 60' aluminum Santa Fe red strip passenger cars.
Lionel produced them in early 1960's. MTH produced a set in the mid 1990's.
I vaguely remember, and I probably wrong, that Weaver Models offered a 5 car set too. Currently, I know of only Williams by Bachmann who offer these cars in the red strip version. I don't own any of the alumium cars myself, but do have the madisons, and 2400 series cars. They are well made and are built to operate. I would think the aluminium cars will be the same. Good choice.

Best regards,
Dave

The ATSF NEVER had a red strip where the "Santa Fe" is.  However, for the SP, that would be correct for the 1950 SUNSET.
