Bachmann doesn't have a Roundhouse designed to fit our N scale turntable, but you may be able to adapt another manufacturer's building.

is the "waddle" of the classic Eureka and Palisades 2-6-0 a feature? or an alignment issue. Since the true drive is a worm gear on the center line of the engine, the opportunity to induce "waddle" might arise from the valve gear or side rod lubrication (all checked), some imbalance of the wheel/side rod counterweights (unlikely), drive wheel misalignment? The waddle is synchronous with the wheel revolution. Does anyone have any thoughts? Thanks.

If You Search eBay for "Bachmann Turntable" You will likely find the 5-stall roundhouse designed for EZ track

EDIT:  My Badd...I saw one earlier today when I was thinking HO scale

Flip the turnout over and look at the two wires than do not connect to anything electrical - put them both on the same tiny screw - that will "power the frog" and may well solve Your problem

I am not 100% sure what You are asking...but crossover switches have (2) slide levers...have You tried sliding one or the other to bring them back into sync?  Or...You might need to flip one green wire "upside down" and reconnect it.

I am currently working a friend's HO layout that has a total of (6) crossover switches and I'm going to try splicing the green wires from 2 switches to a single DCC Control Box to make it easier to keep them aligned with a single touch of the proper button.

I am planning NOT to program the switches to work from the command station...since that will complicate running trains - we'll just manually touch the DCC Box buttons.

His layout is further complicated by 3 pre-teen granddaughters who love to watch the trains...so KISS (Keep It Silly Simple) is the route

The 30-degree crossing can be difficult sometimes...depending on available layout space.  In order to "bring it back" into alignment for parallel tracks requires (4) 15-degree sections. (I have a 30-degree crossing on the N Scale portion of My own layout)

You might want to consider scrapping the crossover idea and simply use the Over/Under as an outer loop - flip the power connection on one loop and DC trains will run in opposite directions.

Bachmann EZ Track is designed to do some amazing things if You explore all the options...and You can actually "create" an exact length track section using a longer section if needed.

Hi all, I have located a bad/broken gear in one of the truck housings of my 45 tonner and have a couple questions. Where can I find replacement gears? & What is the best way to remove the gear rods from the plastic truck housing? Any info would be appreciated. Thank you!

I cannot figure out how to remove the shell on the N Scale DD40 models that I have.  I have tried spreading the body at the frame but all this seems to do is to spread just the catwalk and railings.  The shell on this does not seem to come off as it normally does for every other model I own.  Is there something I am missing in trying to remove the body from this model?  Any help is appreciated
