CP RS18 Livery 3 Pack

Livery Pack for Nate & Eden's RS18
By Emi :3

Canadian Pacific was the second biggest buyer of RS-18s with 72 serving more than 30 years. The units arrived from MLW in numerous groups from March 1957 to July 1958. CPR assigned classes DRS-18a and DRS-18b and road numbers 8729-8800. CPR units were equipped with a 1,200 Imperial gallon fuel tank mounted parallel to the frame. Unlike the CN units, all CPR units were delivered configured to run short hood forward. All units were equipped with a steam trainline so that they could be used as a trailing unit behind a steam generator equipped unit. Ten of the new RS-18s were originally assigned to the Prairie Region between Winnipeg and Fort William in through and fast freight service. They were maintained at Chapleau. The remaining 10 units were assigned to St. Luc for through freight service on the Eastern Region. Most CPR units spent their lives in Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes sometimes straying west of Winnipeg. In 1994 all 61 remaining CP Rail units were assigned to St. Luc Yard (Montreal) for maintenance purposes. As numbers of new SD40/-2’s arrived, the older RS-18s were filtered down to secondary trains and branch lines until completely supplanted by second generation locomotives.

Pack Contains 3 variants of the RS18 livery used by CP before they were chopped.
