Stan, 

I've ordered and received many diesel axles form them to replace all my 
AM code 125 axles.  It was quite a chore, as AM has changed the bearing 
over the years.  Also the six axle units (PA's, Trainmaster, SD-60's 
etc.) have axles that slide side-to-side that have to be considered.  
Next you have the fact that some of the newer units have sprung axles.  
So be aware so you can get the proper replacement.  I finally ended up 
sending them my orginial axles that needed replacement.

Regarding the standard axles.  I believe they are all gauged for the 
newer stnadard spacing.  Some are made for AM trucks, some for SHS 
trucks and some are the older straight axles for the Kinsman, Rex or Ace 
trucks.  I also understand that the wheels can be nickel silver or 
brass.  Many years ago our club ordered hundreds of axles of the 
weathered brass versions and I have many left that fit the AM freight 
trucks.
