Separate roofwalk and/or angular stirrups are a dead giveway that something is NOT Tyco.
As for that particular car, the door track style says "Athearn" to me.

I'd second the Athearn vote. Doesn't look like a Tyco product,also the body mounted couplers are a dead givaway.

| Looks like an Athearn Blue Box kit to me. The shape of that car matches my Burlington ones to the rivet. Only difference that I see is I changed to knuckle couplers.
