I thought Rapido discontinued their Proto-paint line.

I actually got the answer in an Railroad Model Craftsman article a couple of montha ago.  I beleive it was CN gray #17.

Yes, I'm interested in that very light gray on the passenger cars.

I am new to posting here. Have you looked at Rapido website they have Proto Paint that might work. I have used the CPR Tuscan and CPR Steam Grey and they work great for me. 

330016 CN Grey #11 and 330017 CN Lettering Grey #17

Anyone have a sugestion for the gray paint that is used on CN passenger cars.  Preferably Scalecoat II

 

Are you referring to the very light grey (it always looked like white to me) used when the CNR dropped the green/black/and gold colours, and introduced the black and very light grey scheme, along with the CN "noodle", in red?

 

I don't recall any other CN passenger equipment in grey.
