Does anyone know where I can get a set replacement drive sprockets for Trumpeter's T-62? They are not working well at all with the Masterclub tracks.

OR if anyone can chime in and give some advice as to how I can make these work.

Along the same line: has anyone made Friul tracks work with the Trump sprocket?

It's a good question, but I think that Friul tracks (ATL-01?) comes with 2 metal sprockets. The question is: Do they fit the Trumpeter kit?

I would rather adapt sprockets to a final drive than try to adapt sprockets to track.....but, IIRC, the T55/T62 tracks I bought a while ago for a Tiran didn't have sprockets in them. Is the addition of sprockets "new"?

You are correct. I've checked: Friul's ATL-11 for the T72 comes w/drive sprockets, not the ATL-01(T54,T55 and T62)

Drat.
I guess I'll just have to wait until I score Trump's T62 and a set of Friuls.......
