N scale model of Pan Am business train

[0303fxm]

Influenced by the recent TRW prototype thread of Pan Am business train, I made the dome car in addition to my existing models.
It is so nice to know Pan Am has a dome car!
Decals by Highball Graphics.  The original car was a Kato dome used in Cal Zephyr.

The observation was a business car having round roof by Lowell Smith and repainted several years ago w/ a Kato smooth side coach.

The Kato baggage is a fantasy car and has a sound decoder/speaker.  As you may know Kato cars have always electrical pick up and is very useful when needed electricity.

F unit is standard one by InterMountain.

I had painted the canopy and window glazing of the dome car with Tamiya clear green for providing the car individuality.  Though the color is darker than expected, I am satisfied with the result.   
The other cars were given the same painting.

Nice work! There are plenty of prototype pictures to reference, since the business train has been out and about with prospective buyers of the Pan Am system. I do like the green glass effect.

I have the pleasure of seeing the real train in my neighborhood. Your model is very well done!

Henry,

Thanks for your response.
The blue paint I used is Gundam Color Spray # MS Blue by Mr. Hobby, Japan.

But I do not know if it is sold in the States.
