Yes. K761 is probably an old Intermountain kit that K-Line used when they first got into scale and before they made their own molds. It is scale size, so it is larger than Lionel 6464 cars.
Postwar Lionel 6464 boxcar mold variations - O Gauge Railroading …
I am not an expert on 6464 boxcar variations. Over the weekend I picked up a set from the early 1950's that is known to come with an unusual variation of the 6464-1 Western Pacific boxcar. This variation is the presence of ribs on the underside...
Lionel Postwar Missouri Pacific - O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum
2021年12月22日 · I just purchased an MP Alco A-A # 205. Outside of a MP operating boxcar (I think) and a 6464 box car, are there any other cars or other made with the MP name? I know that there was a set in 1957 (1575?) with the 205, but I dont …
Does anyone recognize the identity of this car, ... | O Gauge ...
2022年2月25日 · The decals appear to be a commercial set. This is the only one that I have seen in all my O years. Note that I installed the Athearn metal Andrews trucks as I like Andrews trucks. A photo of one of these cars (MON 6464 lettered for WARD STONE QUARRY on display outside of their quarry) shows it on Bettendorfs.
Interesting postwar set I just picked up 2505W
2020年11月1日 · It is a 1958 only 2505W set. Supposedly quite rare, especially with the components and the condition. The 2329 Virginian has clean decals. The 6464-500 Timken box car is a type 3 with plastic AAR trucks, supposedly only made in 1959 so I'm guessing this set was made late in 1958. Also, the box for the 6464-500 is an over-stamped 6464-515 box.

Re: Does anyone add detail to MPC freight cars?
I also grew up with MPC. Those little Alcos are GREAT runners, just double-check for hardened grease before you run it. I would love to help, but I've never painted anything in my life! Some of the MPC sets had plastic wheels. Installing metal fast-angle wheelsets will lower the center of gravity and help them track better. I know that some of the MPC-era square cabooses such as Penn Central 6 ...
Re: Does anyone add detail to MPC freight cars?
2024年2月18日 · I'm not an MPC-era guy, and have little of it, but I have never seen why people love to bash the stuff so much. Some of it was pretty bad, and some of it was not. As with anything, pick your battles, and dress-up/detail/weather the heck out of the ones that work for you. Part of the fun can be doing something sharp that no one expects done to a "low-end" piece of equipment. Heck, I've even ...
