I just got my trucks in today and the work sooooooo much better than the Roundhouse trucks that came with the cars I bought.

These actually stay hooked together without comming apart every lap. lol!

I have to agree...

My rolling stock is probably 80% Micro Trains, 20% Atlas. I've replaced every one of the Atlas trucks, because the MT ones are a lot better in my opinion.

Man, mine would NOT stay together. It was getting very discouraging. I even changed out the couplers to see if that would help but it didn't at all. But as soon as I put on the new Micro-Trains trucks I knew that they were going to work. I mean just the way they hooked together so easy. WOW! Like magic!! lol

From now on, every time I get new rolling stock without Micro-Trains trucks I’m ordering them with my car order so I can replace them right off the bat:D

Cars equipped with MT trucks roll with less resistance than any others that I have seen in the 30 plus years that I have been modeling N-scale and their couplers are the best in the industry.

lol like magic ey? have you ever tried mixing them with any of the others? I mean, using one micro trains truck on just one end of each of your rolling stock? Thats the way I do it, but only because of my short budget. I could not possibly convert all my rolling stock.
