Kadee products are by far... the best on the model railroad market. Their wheels depict prototypes used from the steam era all the way up to modern day. Installing these on your cars adds needed weight which will improve tracking but they also run smoothly as well. Replacing your plastic wheels with these guarantees smooth running for your rolling stock.

Some time ago I purchased steel wheel to ...replace the plastic ones in some of my rolling stock cars. They worked extremely well. Unfortunately I don't remember the brand name. I decided to do six more cars so I purchased two packages of Kadee wheels. It turned out that the little cone shaped tips were just a little too large for the trucks causing the cars not to roll easily. I'm going to purchase a different brand and hope I get lucky. Others did not have problems with Kadee but I did. Maybe you will have better luck.

These wheels are great on older frt. cars and they pop right in... and the cars pull so much better. If you have hills & valleys these wheels will improve your train length and running. The wheels stay cleaner much longer than plastic ones.

I see no difference in these wheels and the ordina...ry wheels. Kadee need to have tech support to help resolve problems or the don't know. They are just selling parts.
