Large / Bachmann anniversary 4-6-0
August 08, 2014, 11:08:03 AM
The pilot truck on my 4-6-0 is broken. This is the older version slot type. I have the replacement now and am trying to figure out how to get it apart to remove broken truck and install new one. Expected it would just be a matter of removing front part of bottom chassis but on careful exam doesn't seem to be the case. Have looked at exploded parts diagrams but aren't helping. Can someone out there who has experience with this please help. THs

Large / Broken pilot truck on my anniversary 4-6-0

The plastic truck cylinder holding the screw that attaches the truck to the frame has broken off on my 10th anniversary 4-6-0 (#81098). Can I replace the truck with the updated version of the pilot truck and pivot arm. Has someone out there done this and can you tell me the parts I need for the fix and if Bachmann has them.  I think Barry's trains had the replacement I need but apparently he has retired.

Large / problem with large scale anniversary 4-6-0
August 11, 2012, 01:07:44 PM
the pilot front wheels of my 4-6-0 large scale anniversary loco keep derailing due I think to the flimsiness/lack of tension of the spring that they sit on. This has become worse over the past year. Can anyone who has encountered this problem tell me the fix to address this problem. Tks very much in advance  for advice

Can someone please tell me if the drive axel with gear for the large scale 4-4-0 or axel with gear  for the large scale consolidation can be used to replace a broken center drive axel on the 2-6-0. If so would you know the part number and if not could you please tell me the part and part number needed for the 2-6-0  Have been trying to find this info on the schematic diagrams etc provided by Bachmann with no luck and havent been able to get a hold of techs at Bachmann for advice   Tks in advance for any info
