@WRW I watched the Cabin Fever Auctions with great interest for the reason of getting the Metroliner prototype but didn't see them. Maybe they fell through my net or were not there

MTH never made the Metroliner MU. The catalog photo was of a Welz Metroliner.

According to Eliot Welz, the tooling for his models still exists. At one of the last York meets he attended, I asked if he had any leftover Amfleet end caps (I have a five-car set in which the end caps are shrinking) he jokingly asked if I wanted the molds for them too as he still had them.

(PS: he did have some, molded in a different plastic that was more dimensionally stable, and I was able to get a set from him. I haven't installed them yet as they need painting.)
