The original Comets were designed by Pullman-Standard for NJDOT (Erie-Lackawanna operated commuter services). In the early 1980s, Bombardier acquired the rights to continue building these cars with an order for NJ TRANSIT, successor to the NJDOT and E-L. Followup orders were placed by Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority (MBTA), Metro-North and Connecticut Department of Transportaion (CDOT). Most of these cars are still in service today, nearly 40 years after rolling off the assembly line. MBTA has wrapped a few cars for Operation Lifesaver, Massachusetts' 250th anniversary honoring the Revolutionary War and for use on their laser train. Many commuter agencies use similar-like rail cars. These schemes have adapted very nicely to the Comet car design! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul style=\"list-style-type: square;\"\u003e \u003cli style=\"line-height: normal; font-size: 21px; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(241, 196, 15); text-align: left;\"\u003e New schemes and roadnumbers including Boston's popular MBTA \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"line-height: normal; font-size: 21px; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(241, 196, 15); text-align: left;\"\u003e Serving commuter rail operations for over 40 years \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"line-height: normal; font-size: 21px; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(241, 196, 15); text-align: left;\"\u003e Match them with the P32AC-DM and F40PH locomotives \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e HO Scale Comet Cars feature: \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Operating ditch lights on appropriate models per era \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Dual or single cab car windows per prototype \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Free-rolling, highly-detailed inside-bearing trucks with roller-bearing axles and metal wheelsets \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Full underbody and unrivaled interior detail \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Accurate painting and lettering, both inside and out \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Prototypically accurate tinted windows \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Metal side grab irons \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Constant interior lighting in DC and DCC \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Controllable cab car lighting in both DC and DCC \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e MoPower capacitor for uninterrupted DCC lighting \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e Suggested minimum radius: 22” \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e Please note the model photos shown are from a previous run and are subject to change.","brand":"Rapido","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52607246729496,"sku":"IC-606-1084031","price":486.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/7023\/4136\/files\/rapido-1084031-ho-comet-car-mncr-1990s-scheme-set-1-cab-6111-coaches-6155-6164-passenger-cars-922.jpg?v=1788374420","url":"https:\/\/ictrainsandhobbies.com\/products\/rapido-1084031-ho-comet-car-mncr-1990s-scheme-set-1-cab-6111-coaches-6155-6164","provider":"InterCity Trains and Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
