I got them for only 50$ in a modelist exibition in Laval,the guy haved a lot of good thing for a very low price,only after an hour,he sold everythings he get on the table,I missed 11 CP passenger cars at the same seller,another man buyed it just under my nose,but I get the locomotives..

for this deal,I'm very satisfied,both working great and their'e not noisy,they run very smooth..

Here they are,I made a run today with them

It suposed to have passenger cars,but I have to find some good ones..
Walthers discontinued their series for CP rail budds,and the toscan heavyweight cars are also discontinued..Athearn did the same with their stainless cars

Rapido train will have the Canadian soon,but I don't know if they will produce another serie of the toscan red lightweight cars,I hope so..
only cars I can get for now is the Con-Cor ones,the not really great detailling..I have to think about this,But I will wait a bit,just in case a new CP Rail passenger serie come out for 2013..
