No other train fired the imagination of the American public like New York Central's 20th Century Limited.

Its exclusive clientele and blistering schedule between New York and Chicago made it the stuff of legends for 65 years.

A favorite with business and industry leaders, its luxurious accommodations - including a red carpet on the platform at New York - also attracted stars of stage and screen, further fueling the train's celebrity status and romantic image.

New equipment finally arrived from Pullman in 1948, supplemented by refurbished 4-4-2 sleepers and RPOs from the 1938 trains.

Painted in a new version of the two-tone gray scheme, sleepers and observations were named for various bodies of water in salute to the "Water Level Route" slogan.

Up front, matched sets of EMD E7s provided 4000 horsepower to meet the 16-hour westbound, 15-1/2 hour eastward schedule.

Each of these First Edition models includes a special certificate of authenticity and an in-depth history of each car and loco.
