Fear not, re: the DL&W cars, I gave Walthers the artwork and it IS
correct.

Rule of thumb: Never trust the little "diagrams" Walthers shows in their
ads. They're usually just to illustrate the basic idea of the scheme,
not the final product!

I can't speak for the Erie car, I had nothing to do with that :)
