A couple of months ago I would have just taken it apart, beat out the dents, stripped off the white and shot it with new paint. But I just don't think I can do that kinda stuff in an apartment. So, it's a "back burner" project for now. I can let the milkman throw cans at automobiles for awhile!
Same me, different spelling!
pennytrains Looks like I'm going to need a new 3462P! This is what happens when your railroad is "recliner adjacent" and it goes over backwards.

Got any Godzillas? Maybe you could have "Big G" sitting or stomping on it!
Penny, the frame is soft metal. Perhaps you could bend it back into shape with a pair of needle nose and regular pliers. Tabs underneath base can be carefully straightened to to release the "legs/railings". Maybe the platform plate could be flattened between two pieces of wood. Or just get a bigger Hammer. Good Luck.

Maybe I can swap it with someone who has a missile range on their layout...
Clearly the milkman was a little too enthusiastic when tossing that last milk can out of the car. I wonder if this would be considered as cause for dismissal? Perhaps you need to hire a new milkman for your operating milk car.-Ellie
