Question for Joe at Micro-Trains

Can you tell me which MTL car(s) use the Barber long extension trucks? I mistakenly ordered a bulk pack of the trucks and found out (thanks to my faulty memory) that they were too long for the cars I was going to put them on.



Hmm... speaking of bad
memories, Kiz ordered me
100 pounds of dehydrated
termites. He knows I only
like fresh-picked termites...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

Probably the 60-foot boxcars.

The old Con-Cor (and maybe latest) Auto racks, 86 foot auto parts cars and TOFC's. The very old Atlas 86' auto parts cars. I think the auto parts cars were also sold under Rivarossi and Arnold Rapido names as well.

No, those take the "medium +" trucks, which you can't buy in bulk packs (at least, I've never seen such bulk packs).


Hmm... thank goodness
bananas come in bulk
packs...

I don't think any MTL car ever used those.  They were strictly for conversions.

If you're body mounting couplers, you can use these.  Once they're screwed on, the sides can be cut from the draft gear for more truck swing.  Just use a flat head screw for axle clearance, as the roundhead ones stick up too far.
