Is this a KMT car? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I purchased at an auction this unboxed New Hope and Ivyland boxcar. In pristine condition, (unlike how it photographed), but without any identifying paperwork or markings on undercarriage but advertised as KMT. As seen in photo, magnetic auto-couplers are undersized compared to the couplers on Atlas, Lionel, or MTH boxcar trucks. Wondering if this is actually a 2-rail boxcar rather than 3-rail.

Any info on date of manufacture or other details appreciated including whether this really is from KMT.

Two rail vs 3 rail, Two rail HAS to have the wheels insulated from each other. (plastic/rubber hub) Some have plastic wheels instead. (later I think)

Looks like tube depth flanges anyhow.
