The MT interiors are a good idea for the 10-1-2 and 12-1 cars.

I should think you could use the MT interiors as kitbash fodder for many of the other cars as well.

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

I would do as Nickleplate759 suggests.

The MTL interiors can be cut and pasted to yield the 14 and 16 section cars, and the 8-1-2s and 10-2.

They also can provide the 'sections' for other cars.

A source for more bedrooms and drawing rooms might be interiors from streamline cars, such as 4-4-2s.

If you end up with an open space here or there, lower the shades.
