Anyone know of a source for the pickup rollers on the K-Line Superstreets or Williams EZ-Street vehicles?  I checked Lionel who doesn't have them in stock, as well as Williams doesn't list them yet.

 

If anyone has them, I need them for a repair for a little boy who is rough on these but really wants them running again.

 

Thanks

Jim

I haven't been able to get any either - I think its a case of being between one vendor shutting down and the other not yet up to speed - in fact, a lot of the SuperStreets or E-Z Streets stuff is getting nearly impossible to find.

 

The most common type of center rollers on SS vehicles -- the very tiny rollers with the single-piece combined level arm and spring (left side, photo), are quite delicate.  Some of the later step vans and panel vans have a normal type roller (right side - smaller, but otherwise as on a loco) - these are the only ones I think kids should handle.  Fix the other type and its only a (short) matter of time before its broken again.  

 

e-mail me if you cannot find a source for spare. Look at the picture below and verify you have the type of roller on the left.  I have a few spares I've taken from among the SS vehicles I bash or install the other type of roller on.  If you only need one or two I can mail them to you, no charge. If you need the roller on the right, you can get those - they are used on handcars and clown cars . . .

Hi Lee,  i too am looking for the smaller type rollers. One for a completely broker rear pickup on a school bus and a mangled one on a ups truck. your last post on this subject was last year.
