Title: Gear Resolution for RailTruck
Post by: Sherwood on March 29, 2012, 11:46:00 PM
Glad to see the progress on the Shay and Climax gear problem, Bachmann, I am more willing to run mine now that I know there is a fix. 

As far as I can see that only leaves the railtruck owners out of luck for split gears, and that is the only one of the three that I have actually had fail.  Last we saw on this forum, the only resolution offered would be a swap for a railbus which doesn't help if you want the railtruck...

Any plans to get behind this one, or is there an aftermarket set anyone knows of?

I'm curious... nosey even... and I know it's really none of my business but, why wouldn't you run your loco's and get enjoyment from them?

Not running them they are sitting on a shelf just looking like a pretty shelf display.

If you run them you will get enjoyment from them, if a gear problem pops up you can put it back on the shelf looking pretty again until you get a new gear from bachmann.

I geuss I'm simple minded because broke or not a shelf display looks the same to me.
