@randgust:
Here is my N scale P70Kr:

This was built from East Wind Mfgr. acrylic etched sides and American Limited core kit.  Check with Des Plains Hobbies.  I believe they had some (very) old stock of the EWM P70Kr sides, and maybe they are still there.

The P70Kr was rebuilt from heavyweight P70 coaches, however they were extensively modified including car ends and removal of one vestibule.  When first rebuilt in 1940, the P70Kr had full-width diaphragms.
