On a side note, the green boxcars with the pine tree logo were phased out, after Maine Central filed a lawsuit against CP for violating a copyright on the pine tree logo they used at the time. It was likely sparked by a rivalry at the time between CP and MEC, since the Bangor and Aroostook was trying to divert as much traffic as possible to CP, which is a much longer story in itself. Hence why the cars became known as “lawsuit scheme” cars.

This is a great series focusing on the graphic design aspect of railroads. Glad to see my favorite Canadian Class I being featured for this episode. I hope that with the CPKC merger, the heritage of both railroads are still kept in tact. It would be a real shame of they got rid of the iconic beaver. Why can't they just let KCS be its own railroad, or at least absorb it with CP without getting rid of CP's image.

I really appreciated this video. I grew up during the multi-mark era, so to me it still seems like the "standard" CP logo. But this video helps me understand that multimark was actually a fairly brief stage in the history of their branding. The obvious comparison is with CN's "noodle" logo - both the multimark and CN noodle are "modernist" logos from the 60s. The CN modernist logo has certainly lasted a lot longer!

For those railway fans that wish to see the iconic CP multimark again, rest assured, it still exists today! Although in a modified version, by Carnival Cruises. For many years, I often thought there was something vaguely familiar with Carnival Cruises' logo. After reading the book "$elling the $ea", I found out why. According to the book "$elling the $ea", Carnival Cruises bought their first cruise ship from Canadian Pacific, the Empress of Canada. The Empress of Canada had CPR's multimark on it's funnel. Carnival Cruises liked this logo so much that they kept it. CPR said "No, that's our logo.", so Carnival changed it a little. They rounded the point of the triangle, made the semi circle thinner, and the background square is no longer a square, it's now the base colour for the background of the logo. The black on white on green colour scheme was also changed (green being used for ships), to blue on white on red, matching the colours of the US flag. Have a peek at any Carnival ship's funnel and you'll see the similarity!

I numbered it 642. I disassembled it in 2018 and swapped the shells for some from a Bachmann Southern Railway 630. I don’t have any pictures of 642 because I didn’t have phone with a decent enough camera yet.
