    Yes - or yellow zinc which is how they are commonly available (Belmetric for example sells them).

    On the SWB cars they are silver zinc, not cad.

    I don't have these in hand now but generally about plating in SWB's; they started (I believe) to use also yellow zinc plated parts in 67' or at least there are more of those than in 66', e.g my 67' is bit of mismatch as some were for sure yellow zinc and some bright.
    Majority was rust plated in mine though
