They are doing some HO BC Rail Squamish Caboose Models in PGE and BC Rail.  I saw them on "Intercity Trains and Hobbies" Facebook page.

We're going to need more info. The image above suggests PGE or R/W/B schemes only. The RDC's went in a similar manner, granted the RDC's had many options and the additional blue scheme. Not what I was expecting, looks like Kaslo and 3d Central after all. Who puts interior lights in a caboose anyways?

+ thanks for the heads up.

Apparently Rapido is producing an ALCO C-425 for BCR as well. Also info on PWRS with another run of coal hoppers in HO and N scale. Both news items are from the PGE/BCR on Groups io, thanks for that.

+ BCR with 3 numbers, DCC/sound or DC / no DCC already on their website:

There's another Canadian event in May in Burnaby so perhaps more info will be available by then.
