For those interested modelling prototypical consists, here's the George H.W. Bush funeral train:
Union Pacific locomotive No. 4141, the SD70ACe named for the former president and painted in a scheme inspired by Air Force One. SD70ACe, (technically SD70AH) No. 9096 (with an American Flag) power car (2066) domed diner City of Portland domed lounge City of San Francisco baggage/funeral car Council Bluffs (with American flag) Lone Star (business car run platform forward) dome coach Harriman diner Overland sleeper Portola diner City of Denver dome lounge Walter Dean business car Kenefick.
Locomotives can be modelled with AZL units. The rolling stock can be approximated by MTL baggage, dome coach, sleeper and business cars. The only oddball is the power car. This could be built, like the prototype, from a heavily modified MTL coach.
I think I've got it all right.

I should add the presidential seal was added to the Council Bluffs (to the rear of the viewing doors) and as the drumhead on Kenefick.
