Lots of good discussion, even in a few unintended directions.  Talking about passenger trains for the Golden Gate Depot Line, NOBODY has adequately done the Superliner 1 cars.  The Overland Brass cars had twisting problems, which they corrected for the Superliner II cars.  The II cars never had any of the colorful striped paint schemes, so the Superliner I cars would be the most popular.

When somebody asks a question to a group, I normally don't encourage people to wander off topic, but since Scott should have his paint scheme information by now, I see no harm in participating in the now off topic discussion.  Since passenger trains have been mentioned; what do you guys think of the Chicago & North Western Bi-level cars?  For paint schemes you'd have CNW, at least 2 Metra Schemes and Rock Island.   Did anybody else have these?

We should also harass the man for a C&NW 400 train.  For some reason I feel we're "entitled" to one of these.

This should really be discussed in another thread or my "Which superliner would you choose" thread.

In regards go bi levels, im not sure about scale brass but in 3 rail MTH made several runs of the  Pullman 18" smoothside bi-levels in Metra, CNW, RI, and Amtrak.
