So, orsonroy, are you saying I could probably buy a bunch of say, Kadee #5's and just shim up or down to make them fit? The #27's that Kadee calls for are considered medium underset shank, so I imagine they are medium length with a lower than center shank. I could use #5's and just drop them down with a shim or a new draft box? This is all new to me. I am trying all sources I can to learn what I need to know, but you guys here are the best and easiet. <br /> <br />I wasn't worried about Kadee's mating with others, but whether others would fit and work properly. I don't have a hobby shop near, so all my purchases have to be sight unseen. The same goes for the wheelsets. I was planning on getting P2K wheelsets, but I am unsure as to whether I needed 33" or 36". I will get some of both and just use the ones I don't need as static display. Thanks for the help!!
