Can somebody chime in with the history of the 16000 series passenger coaches that were produced in the 80's? They're what my dad got for our layout when I was a kid and I currently have 4. I'm adding more to ultimately have a roster of 7 for long haul express and maybe 4 in local passenger service and take the rounded back observation car out of the regional service.
I'm just curious of the history behind them as their not overly plentiful online.
