Sadly, the train is a fake. Note that it is styled like a steam engine from the 1930's, but, there are doors and windows all along the side. the interior appears to be lit up. I suspect they started with a bus or an RV as the basic shape and added Art Deco details and styling. I sure wish there were more photos or renderings available. I would enjoy making one of these for my model railroad. Maybe MTH will make one like they made the beer train - another very handsome fake train.

That train is a fake just used as a prop. I wish there were additional photos available since it is a very handsome fake. Notice that it has steam engine styling, yet, there are windows and doors along the side and the interior is lit up. I suspect they started with a bus or an RV and added the cool Art Deco details. I would enjoy making one of these for my model railroad.
