In 2004, the NASG's Special Projects committee commissioned American Models to produce this sleeper car to enhance their line-up of their heavyweight cars. There were several versions released, with this one being painted with the dual-gray paint scheme resembling the NYC's cars. The car arrived unlettered, but NYC decals were included. The reason the car was not factory-lettered is because this paint scheme was also applicable for cars of these railroads: B&M, B&O, C&O, FEC, GM&O, IC, MP, NKP, SAL, and SR.

Bill Winans' model has been slightly modified in that it shows "SLE&P" in the upper right-hand corner, as opposed to "Pullman". The custom decals were produced by Stan Cedarleaf.

This is what the car would look like when the included decals were applied.

In 2004, the NASG's Special Projects committee commissioned American Models to produce this sleeper car to enhance their line-up of their heavyweight cars. There were several versions released, with this one being painted Pullman-green with a black roof which was standard for Pullman's own cars. The appropriate Pullman decals were included, should the modeler choose to apply those.

These two photos show the two sides, as they are different in both the window configuration and the roof.
