***Production Sample REFURBISHED PSR9939 Railroad Exhibit Car, SOU 24, HO Scale

We at Broadway Limited Imports are excited to introduce an incredibly unique addition to the HO scale passenger car market: Instruction and Exhibit Cars!

Instruction and Exhibit Cars were among the most distinctive passenger cars ever built, with each one designed for a unique role. Instruction cars were used primarily for employee training—helping railroaders learn about equipment, safety procedures, and handling hazardous materials. Exhibit cars served the public, offering traveling displays that highlighted railroad history, safety awareness, and career opportunities. Together, these cars represented both education and outreach, making them a fascinating and memorable part of railroad history.

These specialized cars are based on our modified coach tooling originally developed for the 1947 American Freedom Train. Since every prototype inspection and exhibit car was custom-built and truly one-of-a-kind, it isn’t possible to reproduce each one exactly. Instead, we’ve adapted our proven 80’ coach design to capture the look and spirit of these distinctive cars—while keeping them affordable and accessible to modelers.

In this production run, we’re offering several road names that will stand out on any layout. The highlight is NS Exhibit Car #27, which still operates today, traveling to special events. Inside, visitors can find displays featuring models of Norfolk Southern’s Heritage locomotives, an engineer simulator, and even a photo booth. This car makes a perfect companion to our Norfolk Southern Executive F-units, arriving this fall.
