Maybe they will do decals to suit whichever train you want. That would be very cool...they did some add-on decals for the UP cars so who knows. I don't recall AZL producing decals. I believe you're thinking of the MTL UP baggage cars which came with decals. Nevertheless, I think it's something AZL should consider for the next production run of passenger cars. While I appreciate the SP & C&NW Armour Yellow cars recently released, there are a lot more cars that could be: additional SP, C&NW cars in other models, Milwaukee Road, the various City trains. Then there's the Mopac trains mention above, SP on the NP, and probably at least a dozen name trains that I'm not even aware of. I can't see it economically feasible to produce all the possible combinations, but I would think that a blank car of each model with decals would be. The blank PG HW coaches worked well for me on the WP. I only wish there were a blank HW PG diner. Of course it's really an issue whether the modelling base would want to do decal, which is probably better discussed in a separate thread. Mark

Sorry, should have said "decal artwork", which they did for the UP cars to be printed by the modeler. azlforum.com/thread/1387/decal-sheets?page=1&scrollTo=16153It is generally fairly easy to crate a "blank" car with AZL cars by removing the existing lettering. But admittedly I haven't tried it with the UP cars. (and likely won't, not of interest to me)

I pre-ordered back in Jun 2017. The first delivery date for SP was Jun 2018, then December 2018 and finally Mar 2019. I just glad MTL was able to ship before my local dealer retired! I hope it was worth the wait. MB Klein has several of the SP SD40-2 in stock. I have ordered one from them and it shipped this morning!
