I just got an e mail from Dan at Rapido trains thanking me for the heads up
re the Canadian blueprints they have copies of the blueprints allready . I
am very interested to see what Rapido comes out with for the Canadian. They
bring out such detail and accuracy especially the Turbo I know its the
other railroad but I did a lot of photography of the train when it was
running. That was a tough job getting a day with proper light good location
and you had one chance to shoot it a real challenge . I did my favorite
picture of the Turbo it was crossing the Rideau Canal at Kingston Mills In
the fore ground were boats locking thru the locks there . It was such a
picture of contrasts its somewhere in the files I think . So I was really
interested to see it as a model however I stick to 1950,s modeling so its
the Canadian for this guy regards David Hill

Hi I sent Jason the information but I realized he would have this
information long ago before he ever spent a fortune advertizing "THE
CANADIAN" . He has not announced an after 1992 Via Canadian because he
didn,t have detailed drawings of the modifications done by Bombardier to
modernize the cars . Knowing Mr Shron he either now has those drawings or is
in hot pursuit of them. Now January of 2008 I e mailed Jason re building
the Canadian he sent me a very detailed e mail why it was maybe later
project , At the time he was thinking maybe 3or 4 years away . Well
fortunately for us he has got the ball rolling regards Mr Soapbox David

Hello all,
Surfing around Ebay, came across a listing for a set of blueprints for the
Canadian.
Maybe someone in the SIG is interested. Hope the link works. If it
doesn't, just search Canadian Pacific at ebay.com.
