Lionel Sliding-Shoe Pickups | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I would like to replace the sliding shoe pickup assembly on my Lionel 752W with a roller type pick-up assembly. I discovered that the sliding shoe pick-up assembly does not operate very well on Gargraves track. Did Lionel make a roller pick-up assembly that I can swap out with the existing one (752M-23).

I can tell you from my experience.......No, nothing from Lionel. Never fail, one of our forum sponsors will be able to help you. Contact, Harry Henning Jr. at Henning's Trains. In the past I explained what I was wanting to do. The parts were in my mailbox within a few days. With Harry's assistance I've converted almost all of my engines to contact rollers.
