I can vouch for the Proto wheelsets on my layout... I've got code 83 track, and a ton of old rolling stock (1970 and earlier). The rolling stock had serious derailment issues, and it wasn't until I started looking at the "knife edge" on the plastic wheels that I realized I should try different wheelsets - I'm sort of new to this whole model railroading thing... So I went down to LHS and told the guy my problem and he hooked me up with some Proto wheelsets. Each and every piece of rolling stock that had been derailing started to roll around the track with no problem. <br /> <br />Changing the trucks probably isn't a bad thing to do, either, but more expensive... <br /> <br />And whoever was making the comments about the ribbed wheelsets being discontinued on the real rolling stock was 100% accurate...
