Quote from: rich1998 on August 24, 2020, 01:17:06 PMI remember reading a few years ago in another forum about Shapeways making axle repair kits for older Bachmann 4-8-4's. That is why I suggested Shapeways. One person said they worked.
The pancake motors are noisy, all metal gears but work. Mine did but pickups lousy. I had to improve them to run DCC. I was bored and retired at the time, maybe ten years ago. Still retired. lol.

I'm trying to do a repair for a customer and bought the Shapeways replacement gear and when trying to install it, it just shattered. Not very happy, and I'm running out of options...
