JWB, detail parts are from Miniatures by Eric and include a correct CPR horn, the winter hatch, correct numberboards (I shaved the ones on the model), marker lights and rerailers. Sinclair antenna is from Detail West.
The stack extension is a rectangular piece of styrene which I rounded and drilled.
Nothing special. Ones could do it with a thin metal sheet too.
The numberboard could be home made with a piece of thick styrene and 2 brass wire brackets. Too often we pay for brass parts we could do with scrap material on hand. When I made my 3 FA+B+A, I only bought one winter hatch to get the dimensions right. Then I made my own in styrene.
