Notes:
These kits consisted of a wooden framework (for the floor, two roof strips, end blocks, and spacer blocks), over which the pre-painted/lettered stamped metal sides, ends, roof, and roof walk were to be applied. For the CNR, the road number is not accurate. Note that there was a version that had silver sides with black lettering. Ed added a super-detailed under frame, and placard and tack boards. He installed Kadee 802 couplers and American Models trucks. He used Scalecoat II 2002 Oxide Red to match the pre-painted sides of the kit.
