This meant that the Hiawatha would be painted in Union Pacific’s Armour Yellow colors. In 1956, the line was officially “partnered with Union Pacific” as they navigated the next couple years competing with both airline and automobile travel. The Hiawatha train wore the UP colors into the sunset as The Afternoon Hiawatha ran up until January 23, 1970. The next year, The Morning Hiawatha service was also discontinued and replaced by Amtrak lines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"content\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eFor the Olympian Hiawatha release, Kato will be making a new FP7A locomotive and a new tooled version of the F7B featuring a winterization hatch (a necessity for trips through the northern US and across the Rockies!)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"content\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eEquip your Hiawatha train with all new uniquely tooled cars using the link below, sold separately:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"content\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/lombardhobby.com\/kato-n-106-089-olympian-hiawatha-9-car-passenger-set-post-1955-version-milwaukee-road-armour-yellow\/\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0000ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eKato N 106-089 Olympian Hiawatha 9-Car Passenger Set 'Post-1955 Version' Milwaukee Road Armour Yellow\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eExpand your locomotive consist to an A-B-A consist with the addition of an \u003cspan\u003eEMD FP7A \u003cspan\u003eMilwaukee Road #96C locomotive using the link below, sold separately:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/lombardhobby.com\/kato-n-176-2303-dcc-ready-emd-fp7a-milwaukee-road-post-1955-armour-yellow-milw-96c\/\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0000ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"\u003eKato N 176-2303 DCC Ready EMD FP7A Milwaukee Road 'Post 1955 Armour Yellow' MILW #96C\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sectionContent\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #ff0000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eLombard Hobbies = Big Inventory ∙\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cem\u003eValue Pricing ∙ Fast Shipping ∙ Great Service\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kato N","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48320304119961,"sku":"KAT1060432","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8847\/0425\/files\/02334975553965_vzdb__21653.1734402558.1280.1280.jpg?v=1784158250","url":"https:\/\/lombardhobby.com\/products\/kato-n-106-0432-dcc-ready-emd-fp7a-f7b-set-milwaukee-road-post-1955-armour-yellow-milw-96a-96b","provider":"Lombard Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
