I have a USA Trains auto carrier that I've loaded with 4 1:24 scale diecast cars. The wheels now squeak due to the added weight (I think). I've tried oiling them, with no luck. Is there a metal truck, or a spring loaded, ball bearing, etc. type of truck that I can install to handle the added weight and eliminate the squeak? Any ideas?

I have the same cars also and have added metal autos to the cars. I do not like the non sprung trucks so I replace them with the Aristo sprung trucks. No problems with squeaks but do lube once in awhile. Later RJD

You could get the roller bearings that Aristo sells, have to drill out the side frames a bit to fit them in but that should solve the problem. You try some grease, instead of oil?
