My, did I ever get an answer FAST!

So the trick is just to shim between the trucks and body bolsters a little. Now to find my Kadee coupler height gauge and see how little shimming I can get away with.

By the way, those Whisker couplers on this car break easily. But I have to go to my LHS soon anyhow...

Thanks for the advice, everyone!

This was only a problem with the second run cars, the first run released at Naperville last year didn't have this problem. Simple fix and once Tangent heard about it they posted info on their website.

Mark,

I purchased three of the gondolas at the NMRA in Milwaukee and all
three gave me problems. I used the Kadee washers and they run like a
champ.
