Hi, Folks,
I need some help if at all possible. Meself an' my son bought 6 (six) Athearn N&W heavyweight passenger cars at a local train show this past week-end and after considerable thought an' discussion we would lyke tae know if any one oot there knows if a company makes interiors an' lighting kit for these cars?
We are try'en tae make the lay-oot as real as possible - How offt do ye see completely empty passenger cars on the rails?
Thank ye verra much for yer help.

I have used their interior kits, and they are awesome to say the least. The floors are scribed to aid in placement of the seats and partitions.
As far as the lighting goes, you may want to consider custom building something yourself. The original lighting kits wont work with the above interior kits without some major modification, although having the wipers from those lighting kits would probably be handy.
