Jon,
Now you will need some patients, doctors and nurses.
Can you find appropriate models?

Roger, it might take some hunting to find those particular figures in 1:48 aside from the fact I’m not sure I have the courage to take these cars apart! :mrgreen:

You could say the cars were in transit to where needed. ??

I recall that somebody posted a photo of a passenger car with three side doors, but I don't remember which thread that was in. Somebody further speculated that it was a Walthers hospital car. A kit of such as appeared on eBay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Walthers-O-Scale-Hospital-Car-kit-3616-unbuilt/143379243826

I was unaware of this car. And, no, I won't be bidding. But it is interesting.
