Reply to "How do I fix rolling stock that wobbles?"

Depending on the car, I have used different methods.  One way, if the truck is removable, is to use a thin washer on the shaft to snug up the truck. When I say thin, I sometimes use a hole reinforcement that you use on paper in three-ring binders. I still have some of the old gummed ones and they work great. Another way is to wrap thin, black copper hobby wire around the shaft of the truck post to snug it up and simply twist it tight.   You can't see the black wire on the truck.  These methods take out the wobble caused by loose fitting trucks, and there are lots of them with this problem.  Just don't make this type of fix too tight that the truck doesn't turn properly.
