Indeed!  The PDS that Martin included with the kit shows the the Fast Mail crossing Diablo Canyon bridge and there is at least two of the NYC cars in that train, as well as several PRR (B60 's and converted x29's) cars.   Any one of either NYC or PRR head end cars also show up in ATSF trains heading over Thehacapi on the way to Oakland.

I caught Andy Sperandeo at a Naperville meet a few years back as he left the Sunshine sales room with a NYC milk/express car under his arm.  
I asked Andy if he was going to change prototypes (as if...). "No," he said, "these showed up all time in the Santa Fe mail train that ran over Cajon - mostly carrying magazines from east coast markets.
