Weren't most of these items removed in later years anyway?

To answer my own question - no, it looks like these appliances are still on these cars for the most part.

one today.  The etched parts not being installed was the deciding factor.  Depending on how the Athearn cars are finished this one may be stripped and redecorated as SP Railroad Police since it was a frequent LA harbour and coast line visitor...

From the work order, real well.  We will also be doing the Brown version in a few months I believe.

Any chance for the correct off-white deck and black rub rails on the yellow TT runner pack?

I can check...those decisions happen in a different department and normally I don't get to see what is being done at that level.

While we're talking 89'ers Joe (sorry to hi-jack this thread), how about an Espee version with a Golden Pig trailer? It'd be real nice if we could buy the trailer separately too...

But remember it was an oddball time constrained paint scheme.
