Palace Car Co. also makes interiors.Their address is Box 973, Kearney NE, 68848-0973 and telephone is 308 238 5099. Contact them direct. Their kits run about $16. They are not listed in Walthers. <br />Also check out Train Station and Red Cap for interior details like sinks, mirrors, a***rays and end grills, which are listed in Walthers. Several options on diaphragms depending on your requirements. I use American Limited because I run on 18" radius. There are others that look better but seem to need broader curves to work well. Andy Sperandeo of MR did two articles on passenger cars in the last 20 months. He covered trucks, diaphragms, height and several other things. They are worth getting ahold of though he did it for full length cars. Then there are all the bits for underneath like steam traps, lighting generator, and poop chute which are available from Precision Scale Co. <br />Finally check out Pullman Project for underneath layout at http://home.att.net/~pullmanproject/index.htm <br />Should be enough to get you started. <br />We know the Athearn aren't scale length but most folks don't and we're still able to run passengers on our compressed layouts.
