The model is available in four different versions:
A: ET&WNC #22 - panel-sided, large single-pane windows, 4 ventilators, end stack.
B: ETW&NC #23 - sheath-siding, large single-pane windows, 6 ventilators, end stack.
C: ETW&NC #24 - panel-sided, large single-pane windows, 6 ventilators, end stack.
D: ETW&NC #25 - panel-sided, double-pane windows, 6 ventilators, end stack.

An example of version A, with the four ventilators.

An example of version B, sheathed with the six ventilators.

An example of version C, panel-sided with the six ventilators.

An example of version D with the double-pane windows.

The underbody detail is shown. The company does make trucks, but not in Sn3, so it is unclear which trucks are used on the model in the photo.
