EMC Gas Electric Spectrum Doodlebug

[Rapid Red Cruiser]

I recently discovered two cracked drive gears in the Powered Truck Assembly. I contacted Bachman Parts Service and they told me the Doodlebug was discontinued 10+ years ago and no parts are available. I am looking for the complete Powered Truck Assembly Stock #H81409. Let me know if anyone has this part or where I might find one. Thank you.

Your problem is easy, but expensive.   North west short line (NWSL) will sell you a power truck..  Measure the wheel base for the size.  If you buy from NWSL cosst $95.00, IF EBAY has the correct wheel base $75.00.  I currently getting power truck for Halmark M-190, NWSL is makeing me one, shipping time one week!!

Y'all now have me concerned over the state of my doodlebugs. Can the gear issue be fixed ala the Proto-2000 issue by using Athearn parts, or are they unique to the Doodlebug?
