The 2200 series coaches weren't given the same treatment. Some cars had
recently been painted silver with tuscan stripes and many if not all of these
retained this appearance. A number of coaches were painted silver with an
Action red stripe. Both of these as well as all-tuscan coaches were used on The
Canadian as needed until VIA if not beyond.
I think that was true for the lightweight baggage express and GROVE cars too.
Didn't the silver heavyweight cars keep the tuscan letterboard also?
