You can get brass Lima style flying number boards from P&D hobbies. Sadly, no one currently offers the proper shaped Mars light as a casting, either in brass or plastic or even 3d printed that I can find. I was just going to use a brass headlight casting and shelf as a stand in. I looked all over Shapeways for a correct Mars light. I wish Lionel offered that as a seperate sale part from the UP FEF or the last run of the NKP Berks, I think those had the proper tapered light body for the steam engine style Mars light. Only Mars castings out there for steam is the CB&Q dual beam version. AD
