MT Heavyweight Question

[eja]

I just added a MT 10-1-2 to my PV passenger special.   Nice looking car.  However, it rides noticeably higher than other Kato corrugated and smooth sided cars in the consist.

Is the ride height correct on these cars or do I need to file down the bolster ??

The ride height is correct.

I think what is throwing you off is that heavyweight cars are usually higher than streamlined cars due to the roofs.

I have several MTL heavy weight cars including two of each of the B&O releases; on my layout they all set at the same height. 
I have run them with the old Rivarrossi heavy weights and they seem to be the same height.

I am eager for more additions to the MTL line in B&O; the parlor and 10-1 have not been done.
A baggage and diner car has not been done for any roadname todate.

I feel your pain.  At least the CB&Q paint scheme used had a long life.  The New Haven scheme used is only good into the 1920s.

Joe said there would be more Q in the future.  Maybe on the second coach run!  I could use an observation car also even if it is a foobie.  I do anticipate some GN in the EB scheme.  Now if they did the Q commuter coach scheme that would be wild!
