Saw a similar item on Going-in-Circlez history of Tyco, but find no manufacturer mark
on the floor and the trucks are screwed, not snapped, in. Is it possible this one of
Tyco's last gasps from the mid 1980's? 
Now my Conrail fleet is pretty much complete. Except for a Conrail GG1...

This car has body mounted couplers, screw mounted trucks, and individual parts representing the control valve, brake cylinder, and reservoir; definitely not a Tyco product . I suspect it is a Walthers kit.

It could also be an Athearn modell. I've got some Athearn cars, none of which have the company name on them. But they do have screwed-on trucks and body-mounted coupler pockets, as well as the brake equipment.

Zelda, I think that might be it. Sure looks Athearnish.
I was hoping on the one Tyco made, but this'll do.
