AHM released old time coach set first made by Pacher of italy. They originaly used a smaller truck then what was used latter on. Originaly the coaches came with the same truck used on the Lincoln Car. The truck frame was metal with a over frame with side detal of plastic. The trucks were screw mounted. The metal talgo coupler arm was made to accept either the X2F horn hook or a European style coupler. Underneath on one end was the Pocher name. On the other end was Made in Italy. Here are some photos.

Hey Buss ; Just seen the photos of the Lincoln Car. One is the photo with a locomotive connected to it. The other taken in Washington with a PRR 4-4-0 #331 in the lead and it has 8 or 9 of the multitruck Lincoln cars behind it. The photo shows 7 cars. 6 of the multi truck type. Next to last has a cresatory roof. Dont know if that train made up as it was went all the way to Springfield ILL. I would guess that as it entered other states on other railroads the locomotive and some cars changed.
