I find it odd the Timken 6464 car did not have the Timken freight trucks. As for the Cop & Hobo, I never noticed the different trucks, thanks for pointing that out. I don't recall too many different powered or roller equipped trucks in those years. The 9308 Aquarium car shares trucks that era's lighted caboose. Shortly after, 82-83, it looks like the lighted caboose started to get the passenger trucks like the Cop & Hobo you mentioned. PaperTRW, the info you give is not boring in the least. I had the pleasure of speaking with Lionel's Chuck Horan ten or so years ago at Milwaukee's Trainfest. I was very interested to find out about the relocation from Mexico to Michigan and the 1983 Hudson. I, at that time, had just purchased a Odyssey System demonstrator. He was able to tell me a little about how those came to be.
