3-Rail Parts

Postby bob turner » Thu Aug 24, 2023 10:49 pm

2-railing an MTH Bi-Polar. Left over is one electro coupler, two center rail pickups, and lots of wire with many different sizes of connectors.

This stuff is of zero value to me, but to avoid a rush, I am accepting offers of useless 2-Rail stuff. Things I entertain - reversers, generators, sand-cast side frames, maybe even a sketch of how the Bi-Polar bodies fit the MTH mechanism.

Barring any such offers, this stuff will go to the first modeler who will pay postage.

Just curious, is a generator a smoke generator?

I meant “dynamo.”

I put these trinkets in a padded envelope. Next week I shall send them to the recycler, and keep the envelope. Nobody needs wire, but surprised that the coupler is of no interest.

The lead truck wheelsets are now in the envelope. Turns out getting the wheels off the axles is not nearly as difficult as it is for the earlier steel wheel Diesels.
