Ha!  Interesting that this popped back up.  I had thought I had posted a followup. Best result by far.... thanks to gmpullman...I picked up some of the caboose trucks with very nicely designed pickups and they really worked well.  They work so well that I am going to pick up a couple more sets and continue with a couple more of my project.   My whole problem was that the axles on boxcars are so sloppy in the trucks compared to locos that even my very carefully constructed wipers were nothing like the great pickups on the caboose trucks from modeltrains.
