[:D]Thanks to a suggestion by my friend Paul. I finally got my CNW Bi-levels running. Although one leans....i'm working on fixing that, and the it also derails on a certain switch(doesn't suprise me though, the switch is a 30 year old handlaid #6) I'll post Pix soon[:)]
I forgot to add....i fixed them by putting washers under the bolsters

Clearly the Walthers cars are not weighted to NMRA standards and I think that accounts for the problems many people report with these cars. I think Adair Shops makes weights specially for them.
By the way don't forget the Three Brothers kits, the old Holgate & Reynolds cars.
