90080 chassis update

[MountainGuyz]

Hello
I have a 90080 King Coal limited edition locomotive / set (4-6-0), created for the Boscov Department Store in Pennsylvania.  Recently, the front truck (4 wheel) mounting and spring came off.  It is cracked in the center and the mounting "tower" is gone.  The wheels, however, are in good shape.  The mounting truck on the parts store is sold out and no longer available.  As would be luck, the revision/update chassis, CR-90080, is also sold out and no longer created. 

All of that said, I posed the question to the Bachmann customer service team, The answer was:  "any 900XX chassis can be used with my 90080.  If that is the case, I have to wonder why Bachmann built a different chassis update for different models. 

Can anyone confirm that the previous statement is correct.  if so, I may be in luck if the store does not sell out on all 900 standard edition models.  If they are out - can I use any of the Anniversary edition chassis?

Thank you so much for your help as I try to save a limited edition Steam Engine

Best regards
Bill

No idea. All I have are the standard edition 4-6-0's.
