Well, how much time do you have? The trucks are wrong (Colorado & Northwestern), most of the hardware is wrong (D&RGW), the roof is wrong (a concession to the fact that a wood roof does not last very long) and don't even get me started on the lettering!
At any rate, there just are not enough C&S cars still around for folks to learn the details about them. Really it is kind of amazing that enough Rio Grande stuff survived to allow us to learn an endless amount of trivial details about the cars.
