I've the opportunity to acquire a Proto 2000 GP 18 BUT it has an issue, "clicking gears". A bit of research tells me that these suffered from cracked gears on several runs, opinion differs as to why from poor quality to undersized axles, depending where you look.
So which, in your opinion, is the better option, replace the gears and use the old wheels, or replace the entire gear set, and in your experience which would be your replacement of choice Walthers or Athearn ?
