Recently on another post Ben had shown some High Cube cars he picked Up. While loading for a show I found my 3 cars. a PRR 8Door., a NYC 8Door. and a Custom Ford Motorsport 4Door with 4 trucks. 2 trucks just do not look right.. So I used the bolsters from the Athearn heavy duty flatcar and made my own . Carl

I thought the same thing Carl when I saw Ben's long box cars... The four trucks look really good!

Why does that Ford one resemble a Santa Fe & have quad trucks?

The four trucks look soo much more ballanced. Great job on the Frod Motorsport. The spacing between the trucks looks perfect!
