    Just got a Walthers 4 pack of stand alone well cars (TTX) and the 5 pack of articulated well cars (APL). Boy are they purdy! :D As mentioned in another post, they are nice n heavy but roll like crap. Sooooo I put MT #1087's on the stand alone's and the end cars of the artic's and 1036's on the rest of the artic's. Now they roll sa-mooth! :D

    Email me if if ya wanna know where I got them as they are on clearance sale.

    Hey Andy, did you use the same bolsters that came with the cars? Any hassles with the replacement?

    Hey Ed,
    Easy conversion. However(comma) I've only tested them on straight track, not any type of radius so I don't know if I have to do the dremel treatment like you were talking about.

    My old Walthers units rolled like bricks over rail ties... not too good :( However, they are now gone. I hope the new units suit you well [​IMG]
