well my thoughts are that since im modeling modern day conrail and csx, most of my rolling stock should have 36 inch wheels, but maybe i am wrong. almost all of my cars coal cars that i have now have platic wheels on them and i think they are 36 inches . the rolling stock i run is almost all bowser 100 ton hoppers and a lot of the lbf bethgon coal hoppers.
i also planning on replacing the couplers to with kaddee #5's. but lately i have heard from a few other friends that the kadee #148 are just as good as the #5's. so again im not sure what would work the best. couplers and wheel sets are two areas that i have little knowledge of or expiernce with. so any help or guidance i can get, would be greatly appreciated. thanks very much.
