    No. The NP are Life-like 34' cabeese the have been shortened and scribed to make them a wood caboose. SPS #709 is a shortened Micro-train and #721 is an Atlas that was shotened in the same way. the ladders are Gold Medal and the grab irons are .008 brass rod from detailed Associate. the Mil cabs are a Roco and a Model Power

    The beautiful colors. And neat heralds. Makes me realize, yet again, how much is missing on railroads of today. Including the safety these cars once provided. It's a good thing we can recreate those glory days in our own basements....

    :D
