@Wm (Bill) Howard posted:I bought 5 older atlas cars off Ebay, mostly for kitbashing, but two of then are worth doing more with, I would like to re truck then for Lionel couplers, and I have a older set of Lionel trucks but the center plate on the bolster sits to high and the car does not look prototypical. One is a flat the other is a gon so changing trucks is the easy way, with truck mounted couples Ideas and thoughts
You could remove the bolster, I've done that before and it got it to the right height using Lionel Standard O trucks. BTW, I would take any old Atlas plastic trucks off of you...I have a use for them.
