I like the look of the Lionel Heavyweight cars better than the MTH ones as well, Arthur. Unfortunately, these cars did not have the interiors, so I opted to install "blinds" on the windows which helps in hiding this fact. I would like to find some diaphrams to install on the cars, but probably too expensive if available.
Better scenario would be to find some later version Lionel cars with interiors and diaphrams lol.
Mark, I wish I was around back then to have seen things back in steam days.....oh well.
My next project is repainting an MTH Royal Hudson(Im on a roll lol)

Thank you for the comments. There are a lot of CP and CN steam era cars that have NOT been done, other than by Weaver, which are nearly impossible find now. It seems that buying other roadnames and re-decorating is the cheap way to go for me.
I am hoping to purchase either a K-line 18" CPR passenger set or 6 of the new Lionel CPR Box cars
