Wanted - Two Gandy Dancers

[Barry BBT]

I have a new idea I want to put into the little Gandy Dancers.  I want two of them, not running, of course.  I will design and build at least two drives for two running "GDers".  Need the front section, with wheels and the rear section with wheels and the pick up parts.

One I will keep for more development and the second one will be returned to the donor for his own use, with my thanks.

Any questions?

Gray one or Christmas one?  Might be interested.

Mickey,

Color doesn't matter.

Gonna go out today or tomorrow.  Sending you the two Santa bandy dancers.  One is the older belt drive style and one is the newer direct motor.

Great idea Barry  I hope you can come up with a simple fix. Just want to say that I would be interested in an upgrade for the first generation Gandy Dancer. I have one I run at our yearly exhibition here in Norway and it is very popular. I have managed to patch this one up over the years by pinning the broken small axle gears and making a new drive belt by slicing a HO scale traction tire in two ! However I don't think it will hold up much longer !

This would make for an interesting build post Barry.
