Kato is happy to announce the next in its "Starter Series" line up, and the first of many passenger offerings! The Amfleet Intercity Express sets are available in a number of different set options, allowing a modeler to put together a bookcase collection or simply to pick and choose their preferred cars and run both lengthy and short trains.

Modeling the shorter distance (and northeast corridor) Intercity passenger cars - the Amfleet II and Viewliner sleeper, respectively - these cars and accompanying locomotives are decorated in Amtrak's most current paint scheme, the Phase VI (also known as "IVb"), which marries modern aesthetic simplicity with the traditional Amtrak red, white, and blue stripes.

The General Electic P42 locomotive is also known as the "Genesis" locomotive. The P42 is a modern 4200 horsepower passenger locomotive used across the United States and Canada. Amtrak's P42 has replaced the EMD F40PH in revenue service and today they are used throughout the United States and often operated in a mixed consist of Phase IV and Phase V schemes.
