Is the wheel-bse the same as a GP-38-2? What are possibilities for this mechanism? Jerry
I had the same problem. I bought an undecorated locomotive and sold the shell. Probably too lalte for using that now, as no undec. available. Jerry
Hey, I have an 8100 and an 8105 in the closet upstairs. Also have two hand rail sets, The locomotives do have the new Kato plows with MU hoses....
Steve, I have two SP Dash 9s I could part with. (Also BNSF, and SF). If interested contact me offline. Jerry Geisert
Instead of a dental pick, I use a round toothpick. Then use the method Tony described above. Jerry Geisert
There is nothing new under the sun. Sorry to rain on your parade, but there is a company that sells these as hidden magnets. They advertise in...

Guys, Kato is showing the prices for AC4400 parts such as the MU hoses, snowplows, trucks, etc. Jerry

First, these are the newest F3As with the new automatic Kato couplers. As usual they are too stiff. I went back to the MT website and dug deeper....
I tried a search, nothing. So here we go again, what MT coupler did you use on the Kato F3A? MT sats 2000 (incl. 2004) and 1128. Anyone tried...
Russ, I saw the pics on the other forum earlier. I have the same request: How did you do the ditch lights? We all have non-ditch light Katos...
When are the RC autoracks due to arrive? Jerry

Come on Steve, the SD-70MAC and AC4400 frame are not identical. The SD-70MAC frame is longer and the truck spacing is different. They are all...
Which MT coupler to use? I tried the 2004 and it was too high. I tried the 1015 in a 2004 draft gear box and it was too low. Same result with a...
To all the guys who kit-bashed GP-60s: What mechanism/frame did you use? Jerry Geisert
