Notes:

The sides, as provided originally in the kit, were a scale two feet too tall. Dick Karnes learned from owner Bob Blois that that was because he used the O-scale silk screens.

Model was owned by Jack Troxell at time of photography. Jack always detailed his models, so it shows items that were not included in the kit. For example, the model shows truss rods. The trucks are Fox trucks, at the time, manufactured by Trainstuff. The Kinsman catalog photo is shown for comparison.
