With this topic back in play, I wish to add an update to my original post. Fortunately, I was able to obtain replacements for the damaged underbody detail casting on my Lionel passenger cars from Lionel. At $10 apiece it did not break the bank and I did buy extras. It is becoming increasing difficult to obtain replacement parts for modern generation trains and I was lucky to find these parts still available.

Now if Mike Wolf would just re-introduce the P5a Boxcab and run off some spare body shells.......

I have one of those affected p5a's from MTH as well. I hope the plan from MTH is to just never make these models again. I have been on "The list" at MTH for quite a while. Would be nice to hear from MTH about this. After all they did promise to replace these shells.
