If those cars are handled a lot, the plastic stirrup steps will get broken off, at least some of them will. The metal will be a lot stronger than the plastic. The only problem I see is that the steps should be square section rather than round. That is a detail that probably won't be noticed by most people. If you want the correct steps, I think A-line/Protopower makes them. Another advantage of the Aline steps is they will be cast in brass rather than bent from wire and are more resistant to being bent.
