Scott, will the new SP cars match the paint on the prior original version?

I wondered about that too and although I haven’t asked Scott, in my experience he’s been very careful about SP colors in a way that the major 3rail suppliers simply haven’t been. I’d expect the new cars to be a good match as well as prototypical. It matters to me as I have some cars from the original run that I want to match.

BTW, I notice that every time Scott makes an announcement of a new offering, there’s literally a flood of other different product requests/suggestions. Nothing wrong with that as it reflects a healthy level of enthusiasm BUT what about him adding an SP 3/4 length dome car to this run, as announced above? That’s a truly distinctive SP-built prototype that’s never been made, as far as I know, by either Lionel or MTH - or by anybody else bar once ages ago. I’m definitely on board for that car.

There’s a good write up on these cars, inside and out, here: https://streamlinermemories.info/?p=1392
