| EB | Athabasca Scale Models | N | 5101 | U | A | Caboose | CN - Point St. Charles Caboose Kit |
| Custom Finishings | HO | 7007 | U | A | Swingmaster speed swing | ||
| W | Junco | HO | K-1 | U | S | Wood-sheathed caboose | There is no claim in the instructions that the car was designed from actual CN drawings. The provided end ladders are to wide, the end window is missing two panes, ( if you believe the Van Hobbies CB caboose is accurate), the steps are not accurate but close. |
| R | Norwest Models | HO | U | A | Wood-sheathed caboose | This is a resin kit made by Brian Pate and the kit is somewhat different from the Sylvan kit. | |
| P | Round House | HO | 1580 | U | S | 40' offset ballast hopper | With this kit you can model fairly closely series 96565-98062--later 300000-301475. Northern Alberta Railways had a half-dozen cars briefly that where turned over to CN. There is an article in //////// on these cars and this model. |
| R | Sylvan Scale Models | HO | HO-1007 | U | A | Point St. Charles Caboose | These are resin craftsman kits that come with decals. |
| R | Sylvan Scale Models | HO | HO-1021 | U | A | Transfer caboose | These are resin craftsman kits that come with decals. |
| R | Sylvan Scale Models | HO | HO-1029 | U | A | Wood-sheathed caboose | This caboose has Truss rod design. These are resin craftsman kits that come with decals. |
| R | Sylvan Scale Models | HO | HO-1030 | U | A | Wood-sheathed caboose | This caboose has a steel underframe. These are resin craftsman kits that come with decals. |
| R | Sylvan Scale Models | HO | HO-1046 | U | A | Scale test car | This scale test car was made from a retired short barrel ore car and then repainted in MOW orange. These are resin craftsman kits that come with decals. |
| P | Walthers | HO | 5650 | U | A | Scale test car | This is the small 2 axle scale test cars and this model is dead on for use as a CN unit. They may be getting hard to find though. |
| P | Walthers | HO | 4200 | U | S | Ballast hopper | There needs to be some bracing added on the angled end sheets and the ladder removed on the A end on the right side. PMI has decals for this car. Otherwise it is very close to the prototype. CN (? cars) blt NSC 2-76 302000's (welded) |
| P | Walthers | HO | 5350 | U | S | Jordan spreader | There is an article by Bob Boudreau in Model Railroading 01/99 on modeling one of these for CN. |
| P | Walthers | HO | 5950 | U | S | Difco dump ballast hopper | There is an article in CN Lines 3/2 by S Swain on these cars. The hydraulic cylinder pots are too small and are therefor spaced to far apart. Also some of the bracing is different but it has the feel of the prototype. |
| P | Walthers | HO | 5750 | U | S | Russell snow plow | There is an article by Bob Boudreu in Model Railroading 11/96 on modeling one of these for CN and another article in Model Railroading 12/96 for a double track unit. There is also an article in Canadian Railway Modeler 9/5 by Chris Mawdlesy on modeling a single track unit. |
