Butch,
I have about 50 of the PRS cars one the layout. About 35 use the
supplied trucks, while about 15 have SHS trucks substituted.
I normally use the PRS trucks that came with the kits, except for the
latter version that were supplied with the reefers--the 15! I have
substituted SHS trucks on those reefers. I think it's all a matter of
how much, if any weight is added when you build the cars. A heavier car
can use the American Models trucks. However if you don't add much
weight, I would recommend the SHS trucks.
At one time PRS supplied the Ace roller bearing trucks with his grain
hopper--they do fine too.
