I tried replacing the traction tires on one of my turbo engines this morning, but the groves for the tires are deeper and wider than on regular Tyco engines. Anyone got any idea what to use for tires on a turbo train?

Eric--use the hair bands sold at walmart-the ones G-I-C uses. they come in different sizes. Go to an auto parts store and look at the o- rings or ask to see the smallest o rings they carry.

Thanx Brian. I picked up some of the hair elastics from walmart. They work great.
