Great, thank you. Hopefully I can get them B4 Christmas if I order tonight.

I forgot to mention, mine is HO.

I have a U36G diesel (The Rock) that needs traction tires. Bachmann's # is 1997. Anyone know the dimensions as I can't find them on their website.

Anyone with a Doodlebug from Bachmann can go here to find the repai for the shorted # 3 &#7 pins:

I used my ohm meter and found the short then used a safety pin to scratch / break the connection. No more short.
I would like to know also what decoder is used to get function and sound. Anyone???

Found  the problem on:
http://home.neo.rr.com/mrwithdcc/doodleb.html.
Shows the problem and gives a couple of fixes also. I used my Ohm meter to find the short and then used a safety pin to scratch / break the bad connection. Now the short is gone. All I need now is a decoder to check it out .
Anyone install one that has sound and function? Please let me know.

I bought a Spectrum item # 81412 DCC ready this past June from a dealer at a local train show. I was about to get a decoder for it and was told that there was a problem with shorted pins that burned out decoders. Is this fixable and how do I know if mine has this peoblem without destroying a decoder? Also, which decoder should I use to get function & sound?
Thanks in advance.
