Title: Track Power Pickup for Big Hauler Truck
Post by: BillBrakeman on February 19, 2010, 10:35:57 PM
Is there an easy way to add track power pickups to the trucks of an Annie tender?

Thank you in advance for any assistance you might provide.

LGB's pickup assemblies work--the ones with the carbon brush and spring in the aluminum cup. --where there are places molded on the truck bolster.  If the mounting plsaces are not onthr Bachmann trucks, LGB also has a set of pickups with the mounting blocks.  gj

Thanks to everyone who had a suggestion.  I think I can take it from here.
