Dear Fellow Railfan, 

We all know that Christmas and trains go 

together, but now it’s official: Santa knows 

it, too! No, I’m not talking about Mr. Claus 

asking a locomotive engineer for directions, 

as he does on this issue’s cover, I’m talking 

about him filling his sleigh with gifts 

ordered from Historic Rail! 

You see, when Santa received our catalog 

up at the North Pole, he placed a large order 

for boys and girls who have been nice and 

then asked us to send Historic Rail to 

grownup railfans and modelers (like you!) 

so they could shop from the same catalog 

he does. 

And what a catalog it is! Inside, you’ll 

find nearly 1,500 items, more than 500 of 

which have never been shown here before. 

There are books and videos, models and 

kits, prints and posters, t-shirts and hats, 

CDs and software… even teddy bears and 

belt buckles. Everything from Articulateds 

to Zephyrs is here! 

So choose those special holiday gifts for 

yourself, for your loved ones, and for everyone 

else with whom you’d like to share the 

joy of railroading, then call us toll free at 

800-261-5922 or visit us online at 

HistoricRail.com to place your order. 

We look forward to helping you make this 

year’s holidays your best ever. 

Happy Holidays! 

Rick Apple 

P.S. Don’t miss the TurboTrain on the 

next page, the new City of Salina version of 

the M-10000 on page 20, and the realistically 

weathered Big Boy on page 42. Opportunities 

to add such unique HO scale models 

to your collection are rare indeed, so 

indulge yourself. Call 800-261-5922 today!

amazing 170.8 miles per hour, the fastest speed ever achieved by a production 

passenger train in North America. Now, the legendary TurboTrain can perform its

Each locomotive has its own sound board so you’ll hear authentic sounds such 

as turbine, bell, doors, station announcements, and the distinctive TurboTrain 

horn at both the front and rear just as you would from the real thing! The incredible 

realism doesn’t end there, however, as each car has an exquisitely detailed, 

lighted interior, glazed windows, operating diaphragms, an authentic Amtrak 

“Late” paint scheme (operated from 1973-76), and much more.

M-10000 Train Set 

The Union Pacific won the race to employ a modern, 

streamlined, high-speed train, introducing the M-10000 in February, 1934 – 

months before the debut of the Burlington Route’s Pioneer Zephyr. 

Wearing a colorful “City of Salina” paint scheme, this DCC-ready, HO scale set is a magnificent 

recreation of the original. You get a locomotive and two Pullman-Standard coaches 

(including a realistic coach buffet end car with working tail lights), each with a finely molded 

body that simulates aircraft aluminum panels with rivets, a fully outfitted interior with working 

lights, a magnetic diaphragm coupling system, separately applied detail parts and glazed 

windows, RP25 metal wheels, and many more top-of-the-line features. 

For example, the locomotive also includes a powerful 5-pole motor with dual brass flywheels, 

eight wheel drive, all-wheel electrical pickup, a working headlight and the prototype’s 

unusual skyward-pointing spotlight, a brass see-through front grille, and a detailed 

turret cab with engineer and fireman figures. 

The locomotive itself measures 10" long, the coach is 8¼" long, and the coach buffet end car is 9¾" long, making 

the entire set – at more than two feet in length – a sight to behold. This is one of the most unique pieces 

we’ve ever offered, and it’s sure to be the center of attention on every layout on which it runs and in every 

display case in which it sits. Order yours today! (22" curve radius recommended.)......................#R92546D $ 429

the NYC domain across eleven states and two 

Canadian provinces. 128 pages, 235 B&W photographs,
