The Canadian (Park car)

Stainless-steel Budd dome-observation car with the rounded tail that ends VIA Rail's transcontinental train; current unstriped livery.

Sizes are the outer dimensions of the body (length × width × height, mm). Colours show the livery; prints are single-colour. Sized to fit a toy chassis.

Liveries and logos are based on photos on Wikimedia Commons.

Parts

Press a number to move to that part.

  1. The door in the middle of the rounded tail: plain stainless steel without fluting, with one tall window.

  2. The black sign below the door window, with the yellow VIA lettering and a red maple leaf. It was blue in the 1990s-2010s.

  3. One on each side of the door, low down, marking the end of the train.

  4. The lamp on top of the roof cap at the tail. The ribs of the cap fan back from it (seven fine lines on the model).

  5. The band round the tail on the upright wall under the roof cap. It starts just above the drip rail and ends square in front of the dome. Band and cap together are about half the height from the rim to the drip rail.

  6. The large windows near the rounded tail, around the observation lounge at the very end of the train.

  7. The steep end of the dome facing the tail. Three tall curved panes wrap round its rounded corners.

  8. Six tall windows on each side, covering nearly the whole dome side and meeting the six curved roof panes over a thin silver edge at the shoulder.

  9. The smaller windows from under the dome to the far end, lower than the lounge windows.

  10. A smooth plate in the fluting with the car name, Prince Albert Park. Each Park car is named after a national or provincial park.

  11. The fluted stainless steel below the windows, typical of Budd cars, which also wraps round the tail. On the model, ten lines 1.4 mm apart.

  12. The side door at the coupled end, with a small VIA mark beside it.

  13. The dome top at 4.83 m is from a source. The roof at 4.11 m and the rim at 0.75 m are unchecked assumptions, and the dome height follows from them. The sloping ends of the dome were judged by eye from photographs.

  14. The 26 m length is squashed evenly to 150 mm (5.8 mm/m), while heights are at about 11.3 mm/m, so the car looks taller than the real one. The roof is 2 mm higher than on the other models. The 35 mm width is widened to the 40 mm chassis. Keeping the tail to scale was dropped, since the dome would have to shrink.
