Quoteglad that you and your friend are having fun with itThanks Bill. That's pretty much what I thought. The front loco on the video is (was) stock so it is probably gen2 or 3, certainly not as fancy as the gen5 second loco!

I have columbia 2-4-2 union pacific steam engine, model 91101. It jumps while going around the track. After farther investigation I found the drive gear is missing a tooth. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement?
Quoteare Bachmann's Thomas wheels the same diameter as the ones used in the Big Hauler lineNo. Thomas spoked wheels are significantly larger. Bachmann Europe makes spoked 31mm wheels under the Liliput name - I buy them from a UK supplier, Kernow Model Rail Centre

I removed the wiper a while back. I run battery so not needed. Have not figure out how to post pictures. I need to resize the file.
Quote from: Rock Ridge on October 08, 2020, 01:40:07 PMThere are a lot of gears in the Railtruck. Which gears are split? The ones at the front connecting the motor to the driveshaft, or the ones at the axle?
I have a G scale Rail Truck and the gears have split. I called the Estore for replacements and it appears they don't carry them. Does anyone know where you can get all the replacement gears for the gear box and the drive shaft?
Quote from: Loco Bill Canelos on October 22, 2019, 01:38:54 PMAs the Parts dept only sells the whole chassis, I've been working on alternatives. The same physical motor is used on most of the HO scale diesels. I've been buying the GP50 motor for $19.80. (There's a $15 version in "kit bashing" but it is sold out.)
Hi Mark,
There is no real way to work on the motor. I believe you can still get just the motor, but the easy way out is to get the complete motor block.

Hi Again,
Here is a link to the axle gear replacement for your Mogul:
https://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/board/index.php/topic,19904.0.html
I have never be able to link the pictures to the text.
Ebay says the average selling price for these is $298.
Only you can decide!!
Hope this helps.
Loco Bill
QuoteYou will need a Northwest Shortline Brand Gear part No. 2223-6 for the Fn3 Bachmann 4-4-0, 24 tooth. This same gear works for the 2-6-0. The cost is only about $12 not including shipping. If you send your loco to Bachmann or buy the Bachmann replacements parts you will only be setting yourself up for the same problem probably sooner rather than later. So get the gear ordered from NWSL. If Bachmann Industries introduces an upgraded gear I will let you know.
Quote from: LarryD on July 19, 2020, 10:06:18 PMThat C-16 is 1/24th scale. There are lots and lots of them available on the secondhand market, so I doubt it will be high on the list.
Since Bachmann is going to start selling std gauge trains in from the Aristo molds, any chance they will start producing the Aristo NG (Delton) models? C-16 would be really cool
