The example on my Warwick page uses a single PDB file containing
multiple models, but you can superimpose two separate PDB files with
Biopython.

You (apparently) are stuck at a different task - combining two PDB
files into one. You need to be careful about not creating a bad PDB
file where residues or chains are multiply defined (e.g. if both your
structures are called Chain A in Model 1).
