N GALLERY BI-LEVEL CAB-COACH CHICAGO METRA #8593 The modern Nippon Sharyo-built Gallery Bi-Level is based off of the same concept as the original Santa Fe ?El Capitan? Bi-level design concept, whose success went on to inspire such double decker cars as Amtrak?s Superliners and the Bombardier Bi-Level car which is also used in commuter service. Today, gallery Bi-Level cars such as those used by the Chicago Metra commuter service can be seen operating in several states across the United States, such as Virginia and California. Model Features: Bi-level cars with built-in electrical pickup are DCC friendly, with FR11 decoders available for optional 11-211/212 Interior Lighting Kits with LED. Prototype details matching the specific cars made especially for Chicago Metra have been carefully reproduced. Smooth rolling blackened metal wheels on all Bi-level cars with all-wheel electrical pickup. Bi-Level cab coaches feature directional lighting for push-pull operation, with alternate illuminating headlight and taillights with an on/off switch for mid-train operation.
