Might work better in the 'Wanted' section....
The Williams trucks will fit the same there are various dealers that sell the 3 rail powered trucks. Assume you mean powered trucks!
- I assume that you have called Weaver? Old stuff, but they are helpful and I'd start there.
- DaBay, of course.
- the Wms idea is certainly worth looking into, but "fit the same"? I don't know...
Know anybody with a Wms E-8? Comparison? Same kind of design, for sure, but that does
not mean that they are the same parts.
A Williams power truck will not fit the worm gear of a Weaver models motor. You can get a Williams power truck and a Williams motor combo and place on a Weaver models frame.
I'm not sure but I think MTH trucks will work. I think they are the same. Way back when I believe Weaver and MTH were using the same manufacture and later MTH took over most of the manufacturing. You could double check with MTH or Weaver.
Weaver sold their excess parts to MTH and they do not have them either. Am working with someone now.
