Ok, I Just Got To Ask...

[Super]

I couldn't agree with you more Nigels. I dislike the red or yellow wheels and have converted many engines and rolling stock to black or gray. I have bought tons of bulk purchases from Ebay that had lots of trains with gray or black wheels. I would swap out the wheels with the reds or yellows I had and then resell all the rolling stock or engines in bulk lots myself so I had lots of wheels. Also in those bulk purchases that would have damaged units that I would not resell so I would strip them for all usable parts including the wheels and throw the rest away. That all being said there are a couple of sellers on the Yahoo Japan Auctions that sell bulk lots of 10 gray wheels which I have bought before. They also sell the yellow and red ones but not so much the black. These sellers also sell chassis, motors etc to. I have a couple more to go. I just swapped out red wheels of a mod I am working on now, Trackmaster Dart with the black wheels from a Trackmaster Toby. I have used Trackmaster Tobys black wheels on a couple of engines. What I like about Tobys black wheels is they do not have holes in them for side rods so they look perfect on diesel engines.
