Hi, you will probably need to get replacement trucks from one of the small manufacturers here in the UK. A good place to start looking would be the Scale 4 Society [url]www.scalefour.org[/url] go to the site map and look under Traders and Links for compqanies who have items like that. Another option would be replace the wheelsets and bearings adn keep the old truck sideframes. You might have a problem with this because these models predate standard axle lengths. Replacing the bearings with needle point brass insert bearings will help. This would be an option if you want to keep the original bogie side frames. Bear in mind that the bogies which you can get here will probably be etched brass and whitemetal kits unless you want to get some newer Hornby trucks that you can stick under your old coaches. A google search should find you some hornby bogies. hope this all helps. neil
