Anyone have the MPC Lionel 11702 Lehigh Valley set? Does the GP9 have metal trucks?

Hi all,

I’m wondering if the Lionel 6-11702 Lehigh Valley set with a GP9 has metal trucks on the locomotive? I noticed Lionel produced GP9s in Lehigh Valley paint back in the 70s and they did infact have metal trucks. I’m just wondering if the locomotive in this (what appears to be starter set) has plastic, or metal trucks? It has different numbers than the 70s GP9s.

Thanks

The locomotive is referenced as having “die cast trucks” here in the description tag. The set is here.
