"HONGZ" stands for HO scale, N scale, G scale, and Z scale.

Post your non-O scale stuff here!

I have a HO question and not on any HO forums.  Looking at them, I am not sure which is a good one.  Any recommendations?

My question is there such a thing a non-wobbly HO split axles?  The Bachmann San Francisco Cable Car, purchased years ago at Cable Car Museum years ago.  I found it in my storage when I got the O-gauge trains out for Christmas.  The Cable Car has always run like a hopping bunny as the split axles are not square to the wheels.  Plus the wheels had a poor chrome job with drips.  I cleaned the wheels by sanding them in the drill, but the wobble is still there due the centering and a few wheels may be warped.  I think the wheels & axels are plastic with a metalized chrome dip for wheels.   I would like to get this car running so I can use it on the small loop of track I have for it.  Suggestions on replacements or fixing the centering?

Regards,

Bill
