Were any saved in a museum someplace ?  If so , where ?  If not, are there any definitive articles with dimensional diagrams or scale drawings, etc., such as in a modeling magazine ?

Paul:

            Googling "Trailer Train Corp/Front Runner"  gets you a  link to Hobbyline.com--

                  Shows a model of the Front Runner Model Kit.

           Linked TTX website (History/1980) @:

  This entry: " 1982: One prototype single-axle, single-platform hitch car and two articulated hitch cars are tested. "

       And this entry: " 1984: Single-axle, single unit 50-ft flat cars equipped with one hitch are added to the fleet. These were given the name “Front Runner® .”

   Hopefully, this is what you were wondering about.
