Cool Conversion!!! Really nice job.
FYI... Rapido is supposed to be making the Norfolk & Western passenger cars that match this era, but they won't be out till early next year. Plus, on the Atlas Forum, if I remember right, there was a post that if more orders for this second run of passenger cars doesn't increase, there may not be a second run at all. Check out their website in case you already haven't...I think they've got some Canadian roads of various eras either in production or planned for the second run of cars. Not sure if they'd work for you, but if you got an unpainted, you could fix them the way you need 'em.
(Edit) I just checked the Rapido Trains website and they offer the 1954 CNR passenger cars...good looking too!
