Not open yet.  I thought at first maybe the old trucks were somehow on these which is why I posted a picture of them in the other thread.  Here is a closeup of a truck (one that does not have the wheel coming off).

Aren't those the same as the ones you have?  I also don't understand the coupler release tab.  It is right behind the air hose and cannot be pushed when the cars are coupled unless you break off the air hose first.

Here is a pic of my "new" and "old" trucks.  The tuscan colored car (top) is new, and the truck appears to be similar to yours.  The orange (bottom) car has the old troublesome truck.  My new ones have taken a few laps on a Fastrack loop without switches.

Re the uncoupling tab, it looks like it would be best to either use a remote uncoupler track or reach in there with a bamboo skewer.  There are very few couplers that I can operate with my fingers without knocking the car off the track anyway, so that part of the design doesn't bother me.
