I have to agree that it is hard to find decent metal replacement trucks for rolling stock. <br /> <br /> I personally have been using the Kadee's with great success. I am not too picky on the absolute accuracy of a given truck on the frieght car it is under but I want the trucks to look fairly accuract and have a free working suspension to aid in keeping the cars on the track in case I have botched a track connection or something. <br /> <br /> One thing I would love to see is accurate Locomotive trucks for diesels in metal instead of plastic. I have an old Athearn F7 frame that had metal trucks with Brass bushings in it that rolls like a dream but I havent gotten around to repowering it yet as I am looking for a good prototypical F7 Shell to put on it and a better drive system for it with Flywheels.
