Arch Bar trucks

[central.vermont]

I've got an HO conversion project I want to do on a brass steamer with Arch bar trucks under the tender. What I am looking to do is replace the brass trucks with plastic so I may have all wheel pickup on the tender. Anyone have any suggestions for this? I'm not an HO modeler by trade, I model N scale so not real familiar with whats out there that I may be able to use.
Thanks for the help.

I know the old MDC/Roundhouse old-time 36' boxcars and reefers were on archbar trucks. Athearn may offer these as separate parts under the roundhouse name?

Thanks Chris.
I should also note that the trucks need to have metal wheels in them or some way to convert them.

It s the standard one piece plastic side frames design, so any of the normal replacement metal wheels (inter mountain being my first choice, and they fit in most side frames) should work if the trucks don't come with metal wheels, but most things do these days.
