Re-gauging American Models Trucks for Sn42

Notes:

The body is a single piece, and the kit comes with all the details except for metal wire to form the handgrabs and the brake rods. Railwest Models sells suitable bogies for the VG. Recommended are either the Kadee #158 (scale size) or #148 (normal size) couplers, with #262 draft gearboxes.

This example was painted in the original color. Later, these cars were painted yellow.
