Reply to "Weaver Trucks"

What Barry L Lewis said. Lionel also makes trucks for Weaver, because Lionel bought the Weaver molds.  If buying Lionel, wait for their yearly parts sale. I need to look into Atlas, thanks for the tip.

The following paragraph is sure to get some people mad.

In my opinion, another option is to search on eBay, or when train shows open again, for the cheapest Weaver cars you can find while staying under $25. Take the trucks, and throw the rest away. You might have to throw some of your stash away as well; it might just not be worth it to sink any more money into a car you might not be able to sell for $25-30 in the future. Yeah yeah yeah, I know, "I'll never want to sell this piece of rolling stock." You will.

I can't hardly give away the Lionel Standard 'O' cars from the 1980s, 1990s, so if one breaks, I take the 'least loved one' and cannibalize it for the others. Few people want them, because they are larger than post war, but smaller than 1/48 scale.
