Scott: Glad you found new wheels that you like. Do you find they are more noisy on the track? All my freight cars have metal wheels, and I love the sound a train makes like that.

Kevin, I do find that the metai wheels make more noise but I like the noise that they make on turnouts, crossings and track joints.   Also like weight that they add to the cars.

This last 100 pack almost completes the conversion of my entire car fleet. A few MOW cars,  10 ore cars and 6 Athearn and MDC passenger cars to go.

For the DT&I, Lehigh Valley, and D&TS cabooses I have done they did have ACI Labels and I verified the location from online photos.

Thanks for that information.

I was under the assumption that ACI labels were only for freight cars... now I know better.

I do too! I am glad I am not the only one.
