I've been slowly working with the Canadian National cars over the past week.

The bottom is my Dining Car, painted in the pre-54' scheme. It's pretty much finished, just waiting for some Rivarossi trucks and an interior when I track those down. It came with some plastic trucks of unknown origin but I need the Rivarossi ones so I can have the truck mounted couplers.
The middle is the roomette sleeper and the top is the day coach. These have the 54-61' paint scheme. The yellow stripes make it one of the more difficult paint schemes to attempt. I used a silver paint pen on the window frames, outlining them with a 005 black ink pen.
I also got these in the mail recently:

I have enough to convert all my Rivarossi cars as well as the doodlebug project.
