Hi:
I am modeling one. I disassembled a Walters autorack, left the trailer train flat car markings in tact, and painted the enclosed section jade. I left the roof silver. I still have to apply the PC logos, but you get the idea.

Uh... I think it's safe to say it's totally bogus. The very first fully enclosed racks didn't come out until like '76 or '77 anyway. In addition, the PC partially-enclosed racks used the new Trailer Train yellow scheme with the modern lettering. There is some remote chance, I suppose, that someone at PC or Conrail put a modern rack on old NYC 89' flat and attached the PC signs to it... but I doubt it. Nver say never when it comes to the PC paint dept...
