It runs
It just takes awhile
Most of my trains run except for two...
The 1948 Lionel Santa Fe F-3 diesel my grandpa had as a kid still needs work...
And then there’s the Hornby 0 gauge train I had imported from England hoping to convert it from windup to electric because of it’s broken spring and worn out gears.
Can i see
I could try.
Also my great aunt has a Christmas lionel train
Almost broke it
When i was younger
I turned up the speed and it went flying of the rails at a corner
Luckily it still runs
Here’s the 1948... My grandpa who owned this passed away and I’m resorting it in honor of him.
The horn, E-unit, and second motor are out.
I have that one
Aww
Its smaller
And same actually
The light and first motor still work.
The electro coupler needs rewiring.
This is the Hornby the day I got it.
That is cool
Thanks.
I just looked it up
Its a crank up toy
I’m converting it to electric.
It would be cool if it was still original
This is how it pretty much looks now...
Do you know how to put it back together
The spring was completely gone and the gears were worn out.
Yeah, it’s almost there...
Ok
The new gearing with the electric motor is pretty hard but the wiring is all sorted out.
One question
Okay, shoot.
How old are you
22...?
Oh
Im 14
Any classes you took to do stuff like that @Plague Doctor Lawrence
