I have a mix of Athearn BB and Walthers freight cars - the Walthers cars are mainly intermodals though I do have one of their 41ft Amtrak MOW hoppers (these are great, take Kadee #5s as a straight swap and can be picked up cheaply as a triple-pack - keep forgetting to buy a multipack when at my LHS). Passenger cars are mostly Walthers with a couple of Athearn Bilevel commuter cars, all seem decent enough, the Athearn cars only need Kadee #58s fitting to make a really decent model. I would second the suggestion that you fit Kadees and metal wheels to everything, added expense but well worth it. Hope this is of help!
