maybe it needs some wood? And some dark patches, rust, etc.

I don't want to make decay details on an object that will get repeated 4 times. Seeing 4 train cars with the exact same rust patterns tends to stick out.

Now that it's skinned, I must say it looks great.

Keep the orange version, and make a blu version as well. And yellow. And rainbow.

Well maybe not rainbow, but do do a blu one.

You do realize that besides the coloured stripes, which I only really have the freedom to make mono-colour, and the wheels/windows the entire thing is silver, right?

Just to add to color, for the neutral version, instead of orange/yellow, try the red and blu stripes. Then double the width in the regular version.

Another good way to spice it up would be to add a name of the train to the side like you can see in that picture, as well as small bits of text towards both ends of each cart.
