and it ain't pretty (well one anyway...)

"Assiniboine Park" tied up in Jasper, and from better days, CP Rail "Canadian" drumhead - on display at the Revelstoke Railway Museum.

When did you catch Assiniboine Park in Jasper? It was a regular on the Ocean...and didn't look like that!

Just curious. Why to this car and Tremblant Park have the smooth panels below the windows on the curved part at rear? I don't recall any other of the Park Cars having these.

This was just yesterday - July 19, 2017

It doesn't appear to have been "Prestige'd";) so I assume it is spare for the Skeena.

Are there any pics of the inside to show what these cars look like before being "Prestige'd"?
