Who makes the car? what kind of car is it, i.e. caboose, gondola, tank car etc. What scale is it?
N gauge, and it shouldn't matter who makes it. Nor would I ever want to light up a gondola or tanker. I thought I mentioned caboose in the original posting.
No, you didn't, but that didn't matter as when you talk about lighting a car, its either a caboose, or a passenger car of some type.
Sir, with all due respects. I didn't ask whether I should go to my local train store or Walthers, both of which I have researched and both of whom have come up dry. If you don't have any better answer than this, thanks, but please don't give generic answers that don't go to the point.
I don't need to know how to use brass shims to make wipers. I didn't ask that. I don't need to know how to fasten the trucks to the cars. I didn't ask that. I simply asked for a source of metal wheels, and so far I haven't gotten an answer.
And yes, I *DID* say caboose or you weren't listening, one or the other.
Thanks,
Jim
Can't imagine you're making many friends here with your responses, even though you are correct that it was "say, a caboose", which you have to admit isn't exactly clear and definitive.
What a jerk, but then again, I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed man. Go your way sir, and no thanks for stopping by.
Jim
LMAO. Okay, guys, I've been properly put in my place. So let's all help this wonderfully polite gentleman with his problem. Or possibly just ignore him and forget he exists. What say you?
I will forever be baffled by people who think that hostility is the best way to get what they want. I kinda outgrew that in kindergarten.

Also after reading this thread may I recommend a copy of Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People"?
