Hey Craig, are you planning to do this car in other schemes? I would be even more enthused about the 70s-80s yellow 'TT' scheme.
We're going to do as many variations as possible... the yellow TT car from the 70s is different from the yellow TT car of the 80's. the one from the 70s is still the as built twin 40 configuration... the one from the 80s will be KTTX twin 45 or the more common RTTX twin 45/triple 28.
Craig, are you planning any trucks from the transition era? Youre modern stuff us awesome, but I'm still stuck in the fifties and need your products back there.
I like the idea of body mount couplers---however, with everything else I own including MT, Red Caboose, and Bluford with 86' plus cars that have truck mounted couplers, how will these cars run with all these others? Note---I have minimum 22" radius curves and most are 24" plus.
They should operate fine with your other cars. The only problems would be backing long trains. Then you will have the usual problems with the truck mounted coupler cars. The body mounted cars will operate better during these moves.
Craig, Awesome model. Now can you release it in the Pipe carrying version as well? Maybe even with pipe loads????? I can supply photos if you need. Thanks
