This release and its companions

































Choosing one for your collection
Confirm the axle or package evidence if you are buying specifically for FTE construction. The body decoration and gold-toned wheel appearance can be very close to the multipack car. Check the silver hood stripes for wear around the vents.
The reference is assigned to the FTE release. Its silver stripes help identify the plum color scheme, but they do not establish axle construction on another loose car.
Collector questions
Can the silver stripes alone identify the FTE release?
No. The similar plum OH5 multipack car shares the stripe layout. Confirm the wheel and axle configuration or original packaging when distinguishing them.
