I have an MTH O-gauge Premier heavyweight coach and observation car, both with frosted windows. I want to replace the frosted window strips with clear strips and install the appropriate inserts that have seats and partitions in the correct locations. MTH and Brasseur don't carry them. Does anybody know where else I could look for them? I have a saved search on eBay, but no luck yet. Maybe cannibalize from otherwise damaged cars, which I don't have, but maybe someone else does?

There was another request for interiors, I think you are pretty much limited to finding old cars and using them for parts. The interiors appear to be made of Unobtainium.
Sounds like an opportunity for someone to make them out of balsa wood and sell them?

K-Line made interior kits foe heavyweight cars for coaches, pullmans, dining cars, rpo's , etc. They consisted of a floor, seats,tables, partitions, lighting strips, window strips with shades, etc. They can still be found at some of the shows.
KD;
Super. We'll be anxiously awaiting your next post on this subject.
BTW, are those your train buddies in your avatar with you?
I'll be interested in how this turns out as well! I have a set of Williams aluminum PARR cars that I'd like to apply this treatment to.
