Interesting Separate Sale ADD-ON from 1997
Here is a unique passenger car add-on. This is the Lionel Duplex Roomette add-on car for the Norfolk and Western streamlined Powhattan Arrow SMOOTH SIDED set released in 1996. These are made in the aluminum style of the famous postwar passenger cars--in full O, like the Silver Bluff or the Congressional, with the Smooth-sided aluminum sides for that heavy metal feel.
This car was issued separately in 1997 as an add-on to the set released in 1996 (not to be confused with the fluted "extruded" aluminum set released in 1981, available in our other listings). This era of Powhattan Arrow cars was released as a mate to the newer 6-18040 J-Class steam engine.
