That's a nice looking car interior.

Looks like printed paper textures?

Thanks for the complements. HO is probably the smallest scale where this kind of detail can be done without a giant magnifying glass.

My plan is to do four coach cars and the diner. That should keep me busy for most of the winter.
This is the drumhead and warning light on the tail coach car.

Beautiful! Looks like I could just step right on board.

You are correct. They are printed on paper with the correct details for the lounge car and panels are preprinted also. It is a giant cut out paper puzzle. It is a kit from Trak Works that is made for the Hi Level El Cap cars.
The picture below is the kit laid out for the lounge car prior to my starting the project.

Thanks. I was looking at the latest Canadian dome car that Jason has listed recently to be released and I might try to add some detail work to one of those.
This one might be for VIA.
