Title: PARTS FOR HONG KONG LIONEL BACHMANN
Post by: ibjman on September 12, 2009, 04:52:05 PM
Does anyone have a source for drive wheel sets for a Hong Kong Lionel GS-4 by Bachmann?
I found them for the Bachmann brand  GS-4 on the front page of the Bachmann web site, but they do not fit the Lionel  version.

The Bachmann HO GS-4 has the driven gear on the #3 axle....the Lionel version has the driven gear on axle #4 and the gear is a different size....hence I cant switch the axle bushings from the new sets I have from axle 3 to axle 4.
I need 2 sets for the Lionel version.
  If anyone needs a set of these for a Bachman GS-4...I have a spare set.

Are you replacing them because the plastic is split and the stub axles are no longer staying in place or for another reason?

Bowser, made repowering kits with new motors and drive wheels . It says fits Lionel and Bachmann GS4s.

I repowered one of my GS4 with one of their kits and was really easy.
