The Coaches
Roundhouse 84883 Series Southern Pacific 50' Overland Coaches
MDC/Roundhouse Trains began as "The Roundhouse" in 1938 and, as Roundhouse Trains and, later, as MDC/Roundhouse. For nearly 70 years Roundhouse was one of the great names in model railroading. After several changes in ownership in the late 1990s and early 2000s the assets of MDC were purchased in 2004 by Horizon Hobby with the intent of using the Roundhouse name for pre-WWII products only. The resulting revival of legendary Roundhouse Overton, Overland and Harriman coaches with new tooling, modern razor sharp graphics and upgraded features, discontinued in 2012, resulted in the finest ready-to-run examples of these cars ever produced. Until now.
The 50' Overland Coaches offered under the Roundhouse name in the early 2000s were packaged in RTR 4-car Master Carton limited editions. Our MRCHQ Custom Premium Limited Edition IHC/Roundhouse 1900s SP "Sunlight" Overton Passenger Train includes the complete four car Southern Pacific set comprised of a RPO Coach, Combine Coach, Passenger Coach and Observation Coach. Upgraded with many proprietary high-end features this premium heirloom quality set is NOW the finest example of these cars ever produced.
