Notes:
The kit includes urethane resin sides, milled basswood roof and floor, cast-metal ends, steps, and detailing parts. Does not include trucks nor couplers. C-D-S dry transfers were used to give a 1950s style of lettering. This model was modified by removing the fishbelly center sill to look more like the Duryea Cushion underframe these cars used. Some other details were upgraded. S-Helper Service trucks and Kadee S #802 couplers were used.
