Toy Soldiers of San Diego - Long Coat Union Infantry

I probably should post this in the winter but what the heck. I undug these from a bin of plastic 54mm toy soldiers.  I liked them because one of the engineer units I served with in the Army started back in the Civil War (Union side) and were responsible for building a pontoon bridge under fire in the Battle of Fredericksburg which is about an hour's drive from me now. The battle occurred in late December so many of the troops were wearing long overcoats.
