Atlas Trinity Tank Car TILX 253127
This car has great detail, some of the best I've seen, but typical of Atlas Master series tank cars. The only issue I have with these cars is the use of Accumate trucks/couplers. These trucks are the worst in the industry, in my opinion. So, I decided to body mount a pair of Micro-Trains 1015-B (brown) short shank couplers to each end of the car. The job was easier than I thought it would be. The conversion required swapping out the trucks as well, but it wasn't a problem. Overall, I'm pleased with the way it turned out.
