If you also notice the hand rails are too thick and bright yellow, it is also an issue to be addressed along with the wheels. Not sure if I want to use one of the trucks I have or scratch buid one with a little more length between wheel sets. Still working on box car project but not in a hurry--sometimes you have to take a brake and another set of eyes comes in handy.
