@MartyE posted:I agree 100%. Lionel had one of the best truck setups about 7 years back the was hard to beat. I still can't figure out for the life of me why they changed it. I think if it was cost, most of us would have rather had an increase at least for the scale size cars.
Well said. A number of us have been lobbying for the last few years for Lionel to return to its original die-cast sprung trucks and couplers with hidden uncoupling tabs. While they recently caved in on the hidden uncoupling tabs, the trucks and couplers are still inferior.
I was planning on buying a few of these new milk cars. Based upon Gary's article, there is no way I will now do so.
