I'll be needing quite a few coal & gravel hoppers and was wondering if there was a preference on brand. Upgrading to metal wheels and Kaydee couplers adds expense, so I was hoping to start with a good hopper.

Jim, when you do change the wheels use P2K, they fit, also I (like Jon) recommend, when you can, pick up The Tool. Great investment.

Are the P2K's the best metal wheelsets? I've only used Kaydee.

I was having a lot of problems with metal wheels on IHC trucks after trying Kaydee and P2K & was told to try Intermountain. They are more money (bulk rate is about $50/100) but sure work great. I don't know anything about 'The Tool". Does it reshape the truck pockets & /or confirm the axle length & bevel?
