Cost < 10.00 not including wipers.

I just finished converting two passenger cars from battery to track power.
Parts list and info at: http://mylargescale.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=44742

Cheap ( <10.00 except for the wheel contacts) and easy.

I really got tired of changing out the batteries....

My three truck Shay didn't have a VCR tape or lube instructions like the other Shay's.  Did I get shorted.
I was interested it the straight Stack
I'm just now getting back into G Scale and I picked up a nib 36 ton and the new three truck.  The 36 ton had to go for repair, back truck gear.

It's a bit late, but I just replaced the trucks on my 2 truck Shay (with the most generous help of the Curmedgon) and it was a piece of cake. Lots easier than shipping it back.
