ejseider, I got them from "Tam Valley Depot. it is a mono DCC juicer. Follow the instructions and it will work great. Also
remember it CAN NOT be used on a DC layout.  hope this helps

I was having the same kind of problem on a couple switches. then I heard about a item called "frog juicer" it costs about $14 for each. I then cut a gap/gaps and wired as per the instructions. now I no longer have the problem. hope this helps. 

i just purchased a Bachmann spectrum 4-6-2 k4 pacific penn #3750 post war w/modern pilot. the tender came with a two wire connector and a 4 connector. The two wire connector wires are broken off. There is wires, one is black , the other is brown. Does anyone know the wiring specs. ?  Is the brown wire closest to the 4 wire connector or is the black one closest. The blowup shows the wires but not the colors.

thanks, guys. I have wondered why prr used numbers when others roads used names.

can anyone be kind enough to explain the difference between a penn k-4   k-5?

baltoohiorrfan, will probably be ok since it will only run in the mine operation. 

thanks , warflight. that helps a lot. going to get one of these instead of the 44 tonner. thanks again

I was looking a 45 tonners. in the picture I noticed what looked like a outside gear or bar or counter balance. my question is does this move? haven't found a store here with a 45 in it,  so I am only able to look at pictures. any help? thanks

dave2744, .
I was thinking if I could find a needle type locking clamp maybe a hemostat clamp would hold the split together after I filled the gap with super glue or maybe wellwood contact cement which I used for years and even now when I find that I need a glue when no other glue will hold.

if my wife was still working I could get a pair from the doctor she worked for.

I am going to try it but when I have nothing else to do

I am not that good with computers and setting up links. I just went to their website, found the parts section then went the geared wheels where I found 4 items listed. 3 of which from how I read it was axles for the 44 tonner. best I can do. sorry

my understanding is and am waiting nswl to reply, is that there is 4 wheelsets in a package for 39.95 plus shipping. that is to replace all 4 axles. there 3 types listed for the 44 tonner so just have to find out which one will work.

as much as I like this 44 tonner I am thinking of putting it on ebay and get rid of it. I only bought for 45.00 but probably sell it for parts for 30.00 plus shipping. only one axle has the split. unless Bachmann comes up with a wheel replacement.

this seems to be a class problem with the  44 tonners. it would be nice if Bachmann would make so affordable ( less than $8.00 a pair replacement wheels for these engines. I imagine there are a lot of these 44 tonners out these.

thanks for the info , acy. that's the fun of model railroading. sometimes you get wrong and sometimes you get right. but it is nice to find people who like to help other. again thank you

thanks, acy. that's a good start for me
