CP Canadian passenger set

I was wondering of anyone could make some CP lightweights to use on the Canadian Mountain Passes route, we could have some awesome 70's era running. It should be real simple, you could use the VIA sets and replace the blue strip with a red one with the CP logo.
All the Cars; coaches, baggage, diner, sleeper, dome, would look like this.

Also, are there any Dome-lounge observation cars around like this?

*Edit* Thought there was one, but I was wrong. Could someone also do a CP F7? I know they had FP9's but there so similar it doesn't really matter.

I'd vouch for that! I suggested the old coal and sulphur gondolas from that era. That would make for some nice runs on the route for sure!

You need to start learning how to paint yourself already. You are already starting pee off some of the painters with your demands. They are going to stop painting if you don't stop. So please chillout with it. We do not want to lose more artists.
