I have a Rivarossi 2-10-2. I was running it tonight and it decide to spit out a traction tire! I was wondering who makes one that'll fit nicely? The second one seems ok for now. They're on the flanged drivers also.

Calumet makes some pretty good replacement tires.

They're different from the usual rubbery material that can soak up oil and fall off, and they don't dry out. I've never had one fail!

Thanks Darth! I used them on my Tyco power torques. I guess Calumet ain't making any more. I know Bowser owns them now.

Looks like they're still making them. Walthers is showing in stock, and my hobby shop always has a box or two on hand. If Bowser owns them, they're probably retaining the Calumet name.
