Jeff,

They're the first run of them by Scale Trains, so nobody knows yet. But
they're ex-MTH tooling. There's a few reviews of them on Youtube. Here's
Jlwii2000's review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Z2gIlJfBe8

But, to make a long story short, they're basically the best passenger cars
ever made in HO scale. They're incredibly free-rolling, never flicker and
have great detail. I have no need for any more, but am considering buying
them anyway because the "new red" color MTH used for the first run (which I
have) was a bit too purple.

Scale Trains has indicated that they will be using brighter LEDs than the
MTH ones, and that the rear marker lights will be more visible.

I hope this helps.
Drew
