Working roller bearings?
No. S Helper Service and American Models have roller bearing trucks.
They do not have working roller bearings that rotate. I believe
Mannheim Tool sells the former Ace line of trucks. They also have
fixed, non-working roller bearings.
I've heard the story that about thirty years ago Walter Graef of Ace
considered rotating bearings in his new roller bearing trucks but
decided against it.
