9594 Union Pacific Business Car, UP #101 "LINCOLN", Building America Drumhead on Rear, HO
Broadway Limited is proud to announce a new addition to our popular Union Pacific Heritage Fleet: UP Business Car #101, Lone Star / Lincoln HO scale.
Originally built in 1950 by Pullman-Standard as Coach No.5447, Union Pacific Car #101—known today as Lincoln—has been a familiar sightin UP’s excursion consists. The car was originally named Pocatello, afterShoshone tribal Chief Pocatello, and retained that name until 2001.
That year, it underwent a major interior overhaul, receivingbrand-new wood furnishings. Following the refurbishment, it was renamed LoneStar in recognition of Union Pacific’s operations in Texas, the Lone StarState.
In 2020, the car underwent another interior transformation,receiving a refreshed design and a new name—Lincoln—to honor President AbrahamLincoln, who signed the Pacific Railway Act, leading to the creation of UnionPacific.
Today, Lincoln is a signature car in Union Pacific’sexcursion fleet, often found at the rear—or sometimes in the middle—of specialtrains. It has been pulled by both steam and diesel locomotives and mostrecently carried the Big Boy Tour drumhead during the summer of 2024, whenUnion Pacific’s Big Boy 4014 toured California and the Midwest.
