I am restricted to 15" passenger equipment.  I believe some of the finest 15" passenger equipment made were K-line's 4880 series especially the later cars with clear windows, interiors and people.

Has anyone had any experience upgrading a K-line 4880 series car with silhouettes and frosted windows to one with interiors and passengers?  I suspect K-line used the same body molds for both cars.  If so, it would be moderately simple to use the windows, interior, and people from one car body and re-install them into another car body.

I have a set of K-line K4880-7992 red Pennsylvania/Pullman cars and would like to add a car in Brunswick green but this car was never made with interiors with passengers.  I have a coach from a K-line K4880-D set which can serve as a donor for it's windows and an interior.  I do not want to  get into a project and find that there is simply no way to do this simply.

This topic is certainly not a 3-rail scale discussion so it was move to the traditional forum.
