CB&Q EMD E5A Silver Streak Zephyr 6-Unit Train Set

The "Silver Streak Zephyr" was ahead of its time and a revered icon in the world of trains. This all-corrugated, slick stainless steel train, named after a movie featuring the distinctive CB&Q's equipment, was truly a marvel.

All car details are fully installed for a ready-to-roll experience.

The set also features a locomotive with special "Silver Streak Zephyr" lettering and streamlined truck side skirts. Additionally, the Bookcase style set includes two extra spaces for additional locomotives, providing the option to expand the collection.

Moreover, all-wheel electrical pickup on all cars allows for easy installation of optional interior lights, further enhancing the authenticity of the "Silver Streak Zephyr" experience.
