HO / Walthers Roundhouse question
December 06, 2007, 06:36:50 PM
Hey all,

I was just wondering if anyone knows what the difference is between these 2 kits  Walthers 933-2900 Roundhouse and 933-2901 add on stalls.
I realize one says roundhouse and one says add on stalls but from the discriptons given  they both sound the same.
They look like the same kit, what is the difference?
Has anyone had any experience with these models?

Thanks
Mark

Thanks Gene,
I will just do that, sure is aggravating after having to wait for delivery and then have problems.

Thanks again

Hi  everyone,
I have purchaced 2 brand new Bachmann 2-8-0 Consolidations.
One was undecorated, and one in Western Maryland.

The one that is undecorated right out of the box runs smooth as silk, not a noise to be heard.

The Western Maryland runs but it makes grinding noise frome inside the engine.
It surges as it runs. like its in a bind and it squeals as it runs.
I have looked at it and its not from the side rods, it seems like the worm gear is slipping inside the housing.

If I open the train to look do I void the warranty?

I have let it run on a loop of track now for about and hour and its not resolving the problem.
How long should I let this run before I make a decision ?

Thanks
