CN Super Continental typical consist
Posted by tafinorail on Tuesday, September 17, 2013 2:18 PM

I am trying to assemble an N-scale  pre-Via Super Continental trainset. Does anyone have information on a typical car consist; ie baggage, diners, Light-weight coaches, bar-lounge, sleepers, day-nighters, etc. on a typical Vancouver-Jasper run? Have ordered FP9 A-B units for motive power.

I remember (as a young child) sitting on the rear porch with my dad, but these must have been older heavy-weights as they weren't around in my teens.

I think the 1954+ era paint scheme was among the most beautiful passenger train colours ever made. Rich blend of colours and nice engine body lines made these a real standout.
