Has anyone out there tried to swap shells between a regular lionel PS1 boxcar and a vision line PS1 boxcar? I wanted to change my state of maine vision with a new haven lionel PS1. It looks like the screws holding the shell to the frame match but didn't want to damage the sound system if it does not work. Thanks

Hello,
Read posts 1, 3 and 5 in this thread. The thread goes into a discussion about sound after that.
thank you!!!
I did just that... switched a up sound ps1 with a old rock island ps1. It was easy...
I think if i recall, the corner steps need to be switched, and thats because my UP sound ps1 was oxide color, and the rock island was tuscan. So sometimes the plastic pins on chassis break. You may need CA to glue them on. I reccomend trying to switch to a box car with same color stirrups so u can leave them alone...
