Jace, All the current production wheelsets and trucks for the tank cars we are doing use the delrin bushings. Our sideframes are blackened and sprung. If you are using scale wheels we have 33" plastic code 110 tread width. We can make up 33" blackened brass code 110 sets as well. If this is of interest, please let me know and I can do a price quote to you for some sets. Regards, Greg Berndtson Iron Rail Models LLC

I'd also be interested in finding out what you are asking for the Ace sprung trucks; right now I have a few extra, but they may run out before I find more at a show. Are you using the nylon bushings rather than the earlier brass ones? I notice a couple of the kits I've obtained seem to have gone to them, along with a thinner wheel profile and washers to space them--presumably later production.
