Anyone have a good source for pickup wipers for the SW series? Doing a conversion from 3-rail to 2-rail and this is the only piece I'm missing. Thanks!

I made a set for my conversion with phosphor bronze wire. Soldered a brass tab to the center for the electric and mount.
Sorry no access to a photo.
I buy pickups from rodmiller.com - MODEL RAILROAD EQUIPMENT SERVICES

I too use Rod's wipers. It's the mounts that require some creativity. I like to make mine out of Delrin and make everything removable for servicing. This was an Atlas 1200, or 1500 (I really can't recall which, it doesn't matter for this). Slightly different truck but the basics are the same. I'll try to attach a link to my Photobucket album. May not work, we'll see. https://app.photobucket.com/u/...3c-80c5-6b85cf46936e
You might get a few ideas.
