Concor LWT Dome
ATSF Drawing
ATSF Photo
Concor model 712 is a model of ATSF 85' small dome lounge cars built by Pullman-Standard in 1950 (Lot 6836, Plan 7616). All went to Amtrak in 1971. It is close to 500-505 Pleasure Domes, but the vestibule window is smaller on the model than the prototype. Underbody equipment needs to be added.
