PRR Passenger Interior Decor

[SpaceMouse]

I've got three lighted Bachman Spectrum PRR coaches--well, a coach, a diner and a businesss class. I want to fix them up for the club, and I plan on painting a whole box of Prieser seated figures to go in it.

But I don't know how to paint the seats and walls.

I know I should probably post a picture of the cars, but I'm at work. I don't even know what to call them as they are not identified on the boxes.

Any suggestions?

Heavyweight--except mine have blankety-blank horn hooks.

As much research material as I have on the PRR, all the pictures of passenger car interiors are in black and white! Anybody know if they have one on the rails in either Strasburg or Altoona?

Altoona has a diner--but it was being restored and was gutted when I was there.

Looks like there may be something similar in Strasburg:

I'm eyeing up #1006 near the bottom of the page. Whether or not you can actually get inside of it might be another question.

Chip, I found this on the web. May be of help to you. There are a couple of shots of the interior of a car on page 2.

I also have some recent (about 4 years old) of some of the passenger cars at Steamtown. They are not PRR but might be useful to you. Throw me an e-mail if you want me to send them to you.

Thank Ray, those shots seem goo enough. I can't tell if the seats are a rich brown that look redish in the light or if they are a burgundy.

Any idea?
