No cars for me with the cheap, ugly and less functional thumb-tack trucks and couplers. So disappointing to see a great company like Lionel take a significant step backwards regarding quality of the product.
My thoughts exactly. Not buying anything with the new trucks. Definitely not an improvement.
Yep I agree too.
It’s been so long, but I recall I was told earlier by David Olsen on the LionScale Modern Boxcar thread that the LionScale and these gondolas can be switched out with the hidden uncoupling trucks.
I just don’t know what part I need to buy unless it’s as simple as those trucks in the back of the catalog.
