1/32 scale trucks?

[Anonymous]

Gentlemen, I am asking for help with finding Standard gauge (1/32) 3 axle, 6 wheel Buckeye trucks. Do they exist? Or maybe 6 wheel trucks from a heavyweight passenger car. I've looked all over the web and can't find but a few 4 wheel trucks. I am scratchbuilding a modern railcar that needs the extra support of a 6 wheel truck.
Can anybody point me to an online source for these?
Thank you in advance,
Murphy

Not being familiar with the intracacies of passenger truck nomenclature, I couldn't pick out a Buckeye truck from any other kind, but there are a few options for 6 wheel passenger trucks.

First, there's Aristocraft. Technically, they're 1:29, but beggars can't be choosers.

You can order them from your favorite Aristocraft dealer, or from Aristocraft themselves. They retail for $47/pair.

You may also check Roberts Lines. They don't have a web site, but they advertise in GR from time to time. Aside from that, though, you may be out of luck. There have been some expensive brass imports from time to time, but I don't think they did parts. If they did, you'd still be looking at a very pretty penny for the trucks.

Hope this helps.

Later,

K

Gracias Amigo! Wow, $47.00/pair, huh? I think I should just buy a used Pass. car and snag the trucks off of that. I'm off to Ebay!

Thanks again Kstrong
