Viewliner II cars were built by CAF USA, are rated for 125 mph and are Amtrak's newest single-level equipment; the railroad operates 55 baggage cars in this style. They run on eastern long-distance trains and on Superliner consists, so the car suits both single-level and bi-level modelling. Worth noting: although the stripes are the 1980s Phase III pattern, these are modern cars delivered from 2015 in a heritage revival, which is why the era is shown as current rather than 1980s. The car ships unlighted; the factory-lit version is 156-0964-1. Kato publishes no barcode and no weight, so the weight is our estimate and the country of manufacture is inferred.
