Title: problem with large scale anniversary 4-6-0
Post by: borduas on 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

I make a pilot truck frame and arm to solve the BH pilot problems.  Bachmann adopted the arm for the latest Annie Big Hauler.  But they haven't kept the pilot truck flexible.

If interested the kit all metal (aluminum and stainless steel) is available for $25.00.  Use your wheels and spacers.  Instructions included.
