Bachmann 74516 HO Scale Siemens Venture Passenger Coach Amtrak San Joaquins 9006
The Siemens Venture is the latest generation of medium-distance passenger railcars for North America. Constructed by Siemens Mobility in California, the Venture cars currently see use on Amtrak® state-supported services in the midwest and California, while VIA Rail Canada™ has introduced the series on corridor services in eastern Canada.
The Bachmann Venture Cars have been developed in collaboration with Siemens, using original design documentation to ensure prototypical accuracy. Joining Bachmann's line of Amtrak Midwest℠ Venture cars are two "married pair" variations representing Coach and Business Class configurations. The prototypes for these cars are semi-permanently coupled to maintain fixed consists, while the Bachmann models are offered individually to allow you to build your Amtrak Midwest℠ consist as you see fit. Also joining the line is the addition of Amtrak San Joaquins℠ Coach cars, as found operating through California's Central Valley between Bakersfield and Oakland/Sacramento.
