Baggage Car Stirrup or Single Step?

I did a google image search for the baggage car.  See multiple pictures here.  It looks like there should be a 2-step stirrup in those locations as well as the car ends (total 4 on each side).  It is possible that the end ones were later removed due to safety regulations.  

I also found this post on the OGR forum with pictures of the brand new Lionel cars still in the box, and like yours, it was also missing the stirrups.   I would look carefully through the packaging materials to see if the stirrups are a separate part in a small plastic bag.

If they are not included, Scale City Designs sells similar stirrups.  Type Stirrup in the search box and you will see several options that you may be able to adapt.

I have soldered passenger stirrups out of brass wire.  It is a bit of a challenge to get them square and symmetrical.  I would make that your last resort option.

Thanks, RRDOC. I will check out Scale City Designs. I would rather not try to make them myself. Hopefully I can find something that is 1cm in width to align with the holes.
