Until I saw this picture, I han't realized that VRE got some of the North Western's original St. Louis Car Co. gallery cars as well as Pullmans. The smaller windows, with six at each level on either side of the door, instead of four, is the spotting feature. Kato take note, another paint scheme for your St. Louis Car model.

That is Train #305, not #303. Currently VRE only has 2 sets of the old gallery cars in service, which will soon be replaced with new railcars. VRE is keeping 25 old cars in storage for parts and they will need to use 10 of them until 10 more new cars come in 2 years.
