Since this car is a kit there is (hopefully) no reason why two bolsters couldn't be included in the kit or a add-on overlay at the least.
Like most of you, I don't model hi-rail, but if we can encourage that segment to start to build some kits, we'll be turning them into scale guys soon enough. More guys building kits--more sales. We all have been amazed at all the kits that are never built by scale guys too. When I first started building the typical Revell plastic airplane kits--the first couple were very poorly built but by mid-high school (despite having no one nearby as a mentor) I built quite a few Kinsaman kits, some that are still on the layout.
