Bachman Tender teucks needed

Looking for the trucks for a Bachman Tender for the 2-8-0. Either with or without the wheels. There web sites says not available. Later RJD

If those tender “Trucks” suffered from their known weakness; they can be repaired sometimes. A combination of “Goop” and replacing the sideframe screws, after drilling a deeper hole into the bolster, sometimes works. I have repaired several pairs for my “Connies”.

After several years of running; they seem to be holding up rather well.

Of course I have to add, that I removed the electrical pick-up from them as I’m strictly battery/R/C.

RJ, I have a set you can have for free. The tender was under water during Hurricane Sandy, so the metal parts are salt corroded. If you want it, PM me and I will send.

I may have an old site coming up as it showed out of stock. Yours did show in stock. Will try yours and see what happens. Later RJD
