Changing truck types on the MTH Premier EV caboose
I have a large collection of MTH premier extended vision cabooses. I do not like the style of trucks supplied with these caboose styles. I plan to change out and replace with either Bettendorf or roller bearing types.

Truck choice by the manufacturers is often very strange as they have a more appropriate truck for the car but are using it in another incorrect application. This swap looks good.

Here is an MTH Extended vision caboose with conversion to Bettendorf style trucks (replacing archbar types).
I am also looking for Rollerbearing style trucks with extended couplers for mounting on a caboose. Do these exist?
