Scotty, thanks for the feedback! Fortunately, I do have another 0n30 2-6-0 locomotive that works. So I can use my track. But I bought this one used after a guy sent me a photo of it working only to find out it had this problem. So, trying to get my money's worth and get it working well again. I'll keep looking to see what might come up. Thanks again!

I bought a used Bachmann train and am relatively new to model trains, but in opening it up the nylon/plastic gear that connects to the brass motor gear, is worn on one side. The train can run, but you have to give it a push to start and if you add more than one car, it doesn't move. I looked on the Bachmann parts site for it and they show what I need listed as "Gears w/Pins 0n30 2-6-0 but it also says "Temporarily out of Stock". I contacted the company and they said it could be months before they have any. Does anyone know where else to get these or a brass substitute?
