I do believe you're right about the windscreen being Jack Stone.  Now that I
look closer, there appears to be a click-hinge arrangement on the roof.  Oh
well, it's still may be useful.

However, there is train windscreen that resembles this piece that is much
older than the others you mentioned.  I can't remember what set it's from,
and couldn't find it on Brickshelf, but I'm sure someone will know the part
I'm talking about.

Anyway, the proper train windscreen was made (in red) for the Santa Fe • engine.
The new Cargo Train has two in dark grey, too.
