mdvle Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 CBC article on how they concealed the paint schemes until the unveiling: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/canadian-pacific-rail-locomotives-commemorate-1.5355867 And the CP pages about them, including hi-res images: https://www.cpr.ca/en/media/canadian-pacific-honours-canadian-us-military-with-special-locomotives https://www.cpr.ca/en/media/photos It is possible with the SD90 that Athearn announced in the spring that they could also continue on to do the SD70ACU, and with collectible paint schemes like these I would suspect that has become even more likely.
