And you think that you have problems with your gears being stripped.

Gears by Bachman?

Nah, looks more like USA Trains :smiley:

That happens often…like anything that is under as much stress; you are going to see failures once in a while. It is a wonder you don’t hear of it more often, in the model press, as I hear of it often through the trade…

Perhaps he did and that's the result!

Temporary repairs using materials such as duct tape do tend to be temporary repairs!!

Ha, so those USA gears are prototypical, screw all you whiners!!!

I also hear that the Canadian govt has required 10,000 wheelsets to be swapped becaue of bad manufature defects

Ha Bachman metals wheels are prototypical,

Jokes on you guys that think everything in the “real” world is perfect and yer little toy models should be made perfect too!!!

Gee, Mark, did you have a bad day?
