No, this cab came with no glazing.
I glued .020 clear polyester strip from the inside using Pacer Formula 560 glue.
No need to cut and fit each window in their hole since the Kaslo cab wall is very thin, clear strips do the job perfectly and the polyester look like real glass.

I used Testor Model Master acryl "Chevy Engine Red" and Badger ModelFlex "Engine Black" which as some gray tint in it. However I prefer Polly Scale "Engine black" because it is more dark. The decals, the yellow and white stripes are from Microscale Decal set #87-746 "CN North America Locomotives".
