FRENCHTRAINS posted:Great project Dennis, a lot of work to do but i am sure you will do something nice with those cars. Spare parts will not be easy to find but maybe some adapted pieces will do it.
Here is the lighting unit, taken from the auction site. The wires are new, original ones where sheet covered.
You can find repro ones.

Perfect! Exactly what I was looking for Daniel! Thank you! Looks like the top part of the truck bracket is meant to fit into the slots on the top side of the trucks. I should be able to make something like that out of a brass pieces I have. We will see. I also realized the buffers on these cars were threaded with a nut on the inside unlike the freight cars that seem to be riveted on, is that correct?
