Tom,

I have a pic of 91875. It is a four truck depressed flat. the two two 
axle trucks at each end do use a span bolster.

Looking at the pic on Walthers site the big discrepancy is the upper 
deck over the trucks. On the Q car the upper deck goes all the way to 
the end. The Walthers car the upper deck ends just in front of the inner 
truck and there is a separate deck over the outer truck.

Good idea anyway.

If you want to use the Walther car most people would never know.
