They are most comparable to a PRS kit, but the parts appear finer and the body is in multiple parts (sides, ends, floor and roof) that you need to assemble. All the ladders, grab irons, etc are separate parts. There are three door variations. Youngstown (corrugated) door, "panel" door and Creco door. The last version is the CGW version. I initially thought the last two would have been reversed; fortunately Ron corrected me so I bought the right cars! Trucks, couplers and paint and decals are all separate.
