I wouldn't even look for kits. If one can get the proper trucks it's quite
easy to build pre 1900 freight cars from basic wood and brass bits. almost
everything on them was fabricated from simple iron or steel stock and wooden
planks and timbers. The best investment is a copy of John H. White's book "The
American Railroad Freight car" which contains pages and pages of car plans and
photos. The cars would be a piece of cake but I'm not sure where one would find
an S scale old time standard gauge loco? ....DaveBranum
