As good as new

Mode of transportation, works of art

You’d never know this car was almost 60 years old unless you looked it up (or were told, as the case may be).
Evangeline Park (Via Rail 8704) was originally delivered by the Budd Co. to Canadian Pacific for the original Canadian, which launched in 1954-55. Today, the Park cars are also used on the Ocean, which runs between Halifax and Montreal. Today, apart from the Canadian, the Park cars are also used on the tail end of the Skeena (Prince Rupert-Jasper) and in summertime on the Ocean. (Thanks to Jon Calon for the reminder.) You may also see Park cars on charter duty at the tail end of other Via trains.
In this shot, the car is seen parked outside the Via Rail train station in Halifax.

Fifty shades of green
