Jim, you must run your freight cars a lot more than I do; I've never had a Kadee axle wear out.
I've never had one wear out either, and I have some which date back to the late 1970s although those are on old bluebox cars and they probably haven't been run much in the last 20 years. Wear yes, wear out no - I will have to find some high-milers and examine the axle points to see if there is visible wear or not.
