Cool pics!

Are those Stewart Warner oil pressure and temp gauges from Auto Zone in the little critter?

"That little guy" (the yellow one), I'm 90% certain is a standard gauge GE 25 ton switcher. Bears striking resemblance to my Grandt Line one, which makes me want to weather mine up, add the faded "SP 03", then add a patch for my dad's railroad.
