Does anyone know the status of NWSL? Are they still in business? I ordered some wheels back in March. After several weeks I was told the materials to make them were back ordered. A few weeks ago I was told that they were waiting for their "wheel man" to come in and cut the wheels. now there is no answer at their phone number and no answering machine. Does anyone have a set of 40" code 145 wheels with flush axles, part number #8279-4 they are willing to part with? I am trying to replace the tinplate wheels on a Lionel E-8 to run on scale track but need to try a set first to make sure they will work. The 36" wheels I tried first just seemed a bit small for the truck sideframes, as well as the axles being a bit too thin to hold the gears and plastic bushings.
