Large Scale Central

Wanted, Aristo Commonwealth trucks

Hi guys,

I have begun gathering up materials to build one of these bad boys:

Looking for a pair of tender trucks, part number 29134, used would be fine if in good condition.

Thanks for looking!

Cheers,
Matt

Are these the same (G.A.L. buckeye trucks.)

Nope

Matt,

I think Roberts Line made Commonwealth trucks but not really sure what size and thinking they may be cast metal. Only throwing this out there as a possible option if you cannot find the Aristos with the part number you originally listed .

I believe Jerry Barnes may be able to answer that about Roberts Lines.

There is also Dave I think he might have a set in 1:20 but not sure …

I have got truck to the Aristo tender, from a fellow in Portland OR, call Noesuch Car & foundry , Mike Robert was his name they where well cast

Wayne,

Noesuch or Nonesuch?

Paul

His card reads Nonesuch Car & Foundry Beaverton or [email protected] I don’t know how good his email is couple of year since I order from him

I did some net searching with no results. A couple listing for threads on LSC and MLS, but no useful links.

Matt,

Here is an possible option. If you can find a Aristo vanderbilt tender with the commonwealth trucks I have a new pair of the two axle tender trucks I will part with. Swap them out and resell the tender. Aristo sold them both ways, so no big deal.

Thanks Paul, it may come to that. I have even considered buying a whole mallet with that tender just to make the swap and sell it off again!

Hi Matt Hutson,

I have a set of new Aristo ART29134 Commonwealth trucks still in the package, let me know if you are interested.
