I believe that is the California Zephyr's Silver Solarium car

The type yeah, but not livery, mine is southern Pacific

I couldn't find an actual Southern Pacific example but there are several that used the Silver Solarium. I have also seen it called the Silver Splendor on a Burlington train.

The Southern Pacific livery could've just been a fictional livery. It's not too uncommon for model train companies to release rolling stock in fictional liveries.

Hmmm,, it also could be a prototype, but I don’t think so, Thanks for you help Super and JT!

Ahhhh it uses the red plate of the Canadian pacific but replaces Canadian with Southern
