HO / Re: Refurbishing a classic Northern 4-8-4

Are there other models that use the Northern 4-8-4 wheelset? You know, so I can cast a wider net.

HO / Refurbishing a classic Northern 4-8-4

I have a Northern 4-8-4 (Burlington) from the 70s/80s. It's shown here:

I need to replace the drive wheels, side rods and cylinder frame assembly.

Any sources for parts other than eBay? If I send it in, will Bachmann honor their lifetime guarantee?

The gear from NorthWest Short Line is performing admirably. Thanks to all those who offered assistance here.

I ordered a gear that should fit from NorthWest Short Line.

I'll share the results when I get the gear in the mail.

Thank you for your help. The model I'm working on was called the "Flying Scot" and it is in fact a 4-6-0.



From the looks of it, it does seem like the link you reference would fit. Any idea who might sell that chassis?

Anyone know what the usual turnaround for the NWSL folks might be? I submitted my search form but haven't heard back.

Hello,

I'm looking to replace the axle gear for a late '80s Bachmann Flying Scot 4-6-0. The Bachmann parts office is not able to help.

Here's the gear info:

Gear OUTSIDE DIAMETER (tooth tip to tooth tip):  12.5 mm
Gear INSIDE DIAMETER (bore hole or shaft size): 2 mm
Gear WIDTH: 9.5 mm
24 teeth
Straight teeth
Plastic

The axle part of the gear is 9.5 mm wide while the gear itself is 1.25 mm wide.

Thanks in advance for your help.  :)
