Athearn N Scale Containers?

Does anyone already own any of Athearn's N scale containers? Do they feature connecting pins (bottom ones, I assume?), and if so, are they compatible with any other manufacturer's N scale container connecting pins?

I don't have any, and I am not even sure if any have even been released yet.  The websites I visit regularly still have them with a "pre-order"  status.

However, they did have some JTC containers in their possession when they designed their containers, so hopefully they will be compatible with the JTC containers.   :)

I think the first ones are due in Late February (some say January)

I also have some on order from 2019.  I cancelled my first set of reservations and ordered JTC (from the same dealer) when Athearn started pushing their delivery dates back.
