MODEL TRAIN POLL

WHO CREATED THE METROLINER?

Now I have one to add to Spacemouse’s “other:”

One of the above.

Having no interest whatever in the prototype, which can’t operate on 1067mm gauge track, I really don’t care to know. To me, this is like asking the brand name of the most popular wine in Paris, a city I will almost certainly never revisit.

Lego created a Metroliner set that was an Amtrak EMU in phase three, not really based upon any real world prototype but it was easy to turn the locomotive into a passable (by Lego standards) Amtrak Genesis.

Bachman did a set of Metroliners in HO and N based upon the real Pennsy-made prototypes. It wasn’t a great runner or well detailed but I personally wouldn’t mind a few so that I can turn them into SPV 2000s.

Cheers!
