Listed on eBay is an Overland Sn3 C&S caboose number 1002, the one with the center cupola:

Only 25 were built in 1986, it is one of the rarer of the Sn3 cabooses.


Also listed is an Overland C&S 2-6-0 number 9:

Note that this is the first Overland run (1985) of C&S number 9 -- the detailing is cruder than the second run (1990) Cooke 2-6-0's, the Ridgeway spark arrestor is not hinged. This model tended to be a fast runner, would likely need to be re-motored / re-geared to run as nicely as the second run locomotives.
