Accurail makes alot of kits that my 1969 modeling period. I have purchased a bunch and am quite happy with them. However things right now keep me from building as much as I would like. James

QUOTE: Originally posted by railroadyoshi My question is, have they started putting screws in their kits versus the pins. The pins were my only major problem with Accurail, otherwise I love them.
QUOTE: Originally posted by railroadyoshi Another question, have people been finding ways to get p2k wheelsets really cheap? Or is my LHS over pricing?. They are charging $20 for 6 wheelsets, only enough for 1.5 cars. therefore, that would bring the price of an accurail car WAY up. Any suggestions on where to find them cheap?
