This makes it a tossup for future consideration. I have no South Wind cars. What I do have are places where I failed to make suitable easements. Karnes told me a few months ago to make vertical slots out of the center journal holes, will see how this goes for now. Thanks Much.

The brass trucks will add some extra weight in the lower more desirable place. Rolling qualities will probably not be as good however. Put those plastic trucks on those Southwind brass cars. It might help keep those shorting problems at bay. There is nothing worse than having a nicely painted brass car starting to short on curves and discovering that the wheel flanges have worn away the paint someplace. Now you have a shorting car that needs work, but you also have to fix the worn paint too.
