Title: Ho K4 Spectrum
Post by: Penn1974 on October 30, 2018, 02:14:46 PM
This is my last K4 that I had running. It is a HO non DCC Spectrum cab numbered 5475. It will move forward and reverse with no problem but the shell moves side to side. I can not see any any problems with the side rods moving wrong. Any help would be appreciated .

Is the shell the only thing moving, or is the whole locomotive moving?

In general, you want the whole locomotive to move 😂😂.

It is the whole engine not just the shell.

Sounds to me like the wheels need to be re-gauged.  If it's wobbling between the rails then
the gauge is too narrow.  Spread the drivers.
