A note about the diaphragms, for the most part there is little or no unrealistic gap between the cars on curve radius of 30" or more. Some cars require the addition of a clear styrene sheet such as on the full dome car. Lit cars have a DC "flicker-free" supercapacitor lighting circuit (design by Jim Betz, viewable on Google), with tail marker lights on the coach, and also on the baggage car which are switchable on/off using magnets (available at your hardware store) using a latching reed switch inside the car Lights will stay on a minute or so even over dirty track or after it is removed from track power. Original boxes have tears at corners, otherwise in good condition with cardboard factory packaging. This is from the Gulf & Pacific Railroad which was featured in the March 2023 issue of Model Railroader magazine (Google it or use link below). This train is on the cover of this magazine; additional pictures and content is also in this magazine. Videos of this layout as well as this train may be seen on YouTube under "jostaiii". https://shop.trains.com/products/model-railroader-march-2023 Diaphragms kitbashed from Walthers and IHC are operational with realistic minimal gaps so does need adjusting and/or clear styrene sheets especially for layouts with curves of 30" radius or less.
