Great!

The LRS car is close enough for me...  note post 2020 no consol stencil...

I'll have to fudge my timeline to have the LRS cars on my layout.  Maybe I'll just cut out the CSX boxcar logo timeframe

You cannot have enough of this.

These should be nice cars.

This thread inspired me to dig into my box of cars with problems. I found an early run TTX that had a bad truck/coupler, so I tagged it to "add MTL's"

Just finished up and running well and looks very nice on the rails.

Had to cut off the small diameter nub that the original truck screw threads into. Drill with a 5/64" bit, and the MTL truck coupler assembly with the MTL pin pops right into place.

This new release with body mount MTL's is a nice improvement over the early releases. Great to see them come out.
