I'm the one
I have just bought 6 Atlas Trainman 4 Bay Covered Hoppers and 6 Atlas Trainman 2 Bay Covered Hoppers as follows:
What I want to do is the following:
1. Replace the Trucks with top quality trucks
2. Replace the Wheels with Metal wheels
3. Replace the Couplers for top quality ones (presumably truck mounted)
So what I'd like to know is:
1. What are th BEST trucks to buy that will interchange with the Atlas trucks?
2. Is there a "One for One" swap out Top Quality Truck for these cars? In other words, remove the Atlas Trucks and Install the new Top Quality ones with NO mods needed to anything.
I am only mentioning the trucks as I am assuming the couplers will be truck mounted as per the Atlas ones and they will come with Metal Wheels. IF they don't come with Metal Wheels:
1. What size and make of Meal Wheels should I be considering?
Finally, and this is the free for all part:
1. What else can I do, should I do, to improve the appearance of these cars? Anything and Everything is applicable here
