Title: Need driveshafts for old TGV set, anywhere to get them?
Post by: bobotech on August 26, 2010, 04:11:51 PM
I have the old TGV set (apparently from the '80s) that has bad drive shafts on the engine.  I would love to get the engine running again.  Is there anywhere I can get the shafts or even a replacement engine?

Thanks...

I can't find any Bachmann stuff, but there is a Lima set on ebay and a bunch of Kato sets for sale.

Will the Lima engines work with the bachmann cars?  If so I just might go that route.

Try NWSL - they should have something that will work.  A phone call should get you in touch with a machinist in-the-know.
