Put the wipers on the bak of the wheels instaed of the axels. This will give 
you all wheel pick up.

  Hello one and all,

I am in the process of building a Kaslo caboose (cabin car). I am going 
to have interior lighting, so I need to be able to pickup track power 
through the wheels. Apparently all the S-scale wheelsets I have are 
fully insulated (I guess the axles are plastic?). I am thinking about 
using axle wipers (I already have those), so I need those types of axles 
that have metal-to-metal contact with one wheel. Which wheelset do I 
need? Are the SHS 00979 wheelsets appropriate for my solution (are they 
scale wheels)?

Thank you for any info,
  - Peter.
