Notes:

Each kit consisted of etched brass components, white-metal trucks, and some wire. Additionally, the A unit kit contained a soft-metal casting that comprised the top of the nose and the windshield. Cascade Hobby Products provided the power chassis for this model, which used a Sagami motor, gearbox with Delrin chain and gears, Hobbytown universals, and Lindsay truck gearboxes.

The models in the photo were built by Dick, and he used Enhorning decals, MV lenses, and HO-scale Kadee couplers.
