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.
