No flying Rio Grande,
Then Rerhaps this George Beam Photo of newly rebuilt 3304 will help.
Some of the variations, I have observed on 3000 series rebuilt cars are some cars have KD rather than KC brake systems, Plain verses Camel doors (and at least one car with CRECO door hardware), and on a number of cars the lower door guides on the end doors are different. Some had been the trussrod style from which the queen post portion had been cut off.
