The prototype Viewliner sleepers were developed in the late 1980s to replace Amtrak's aging heritage equipment. Built as single-level cars to suit the tunnel clearances of eastern routes, production units were assembled by Amerail/Morrison-Knudsen and entered service in 1995. Each car offers roomettes, bedrooms and an accessible bedroom with room for a wheelchair or mobility device, and the type is quickly recognized by its distinctive double row of windows. These cars remain in Amtrak service well into the 21st century.

Factory-installed LED interior lighting, full interiors, improved diaphragms and a detailed underbody add to the realism, while a GSI metal truck provides electrical pickup.
