Just received the Polar Express 15th Anniversary Freight Sounds box car.  Another member posted a video before I purchased and his assessment was spot on (eg, wish there was a way to only have sleigh bell sound).  Was also surprised a little that overall it’s a bit bigger than the other Polar Express box cars (higher and a bit wider)  - ???

But my real question, extra pieces are provided in a small plastic bag with no explanation on the instruction sheet (see pix).  Any idea what these are for?



Thanks everyone for your continued help to the new guy....

They are to allow you to mount scale couplers to the frame instead of using the couplers as delivered on the trucks, if desired.

The higher and a bit wider aspect is probably because this is considered a scale car (while I'm not familiar with it, it would not have come with those parts if it were not), the other PE cars are probably more traditional (toy train, 6464, etc.) sized.
