Thanks for posting the photos and updates. I agree with Joe on Red Coaches, but this is a nice shade of red. I apologize for being late to the "party". But what is the history of this project? Are these some sort of "Heritage Project" for special runs/displays. Are these connected with the green tourist sleeper we have seen recent pics of? And/or the cars pulled by 315 on a charter a few year ago? Great work and thanks to those who made this possible.
