The kit comes with Youngstown doors and Dreadnaught ends. This is a early styrene kit that consists of two flat sides (1/16"-thick black plastic) and white plastic castings for the Dreadnaught ends, roof, under frame, roof walk, door guides, and doors. Brass ladders, brake wheel, and end steps. White-metal AB brake castings and steel hand grabs complete the kit. Please note that modelers are reporting these kits as being challenging to build, and you might need to deal with warped parts.
