Canadian Railroads > CP 8876 Olympic unit leader out of Coquitlam

It's been five years since Vancouver hosted the Olympic games,
but one CP unit still reminds us of its Olympic paint scheme.
CP 8876 was leading Train 300 grain empties out of Coquitlam, B.C. yard on June 27, at about 3PM.
Hopefully, someone can catch it further east.

This makes me wonder if Athearn couldn't do this paint scheme without the Olympic Rings and get someone to do decals of five independent coloured rings.   What the modeler does with those five independent decals of five independent coloured rings is of no concern to Athearn.  Of course the modeller would have to lay these rings One decal at a time over top of one another and consult the prototype.

;-p

I doubt there would be any concern because I supect there are alot of people in the IOC being busy shreading papers while looking over their shoulders at latest news articles on FIFA.
