Don't know how I missed this thread last week.

Very nice work.

Gives me hope that maybe someday when I have more "Free" time I can do as good of a job. I still have an AHM unit I have running again and I've updated the couplers on. I just have to get back in the train room to work on it.

It's reassemble day for this Spectrum 2-8-0 Steam. I'm replacing the belt that seemed to be slipping. Hopefully this one will be a little tighter. Maybe I'll find there's a different issue. We'll see. Oh yeah, wish me luck reassembling this thing that I took apart last week.

Those are tricky. Not losing the worm bearings is the priority I think. Make sure the top cog/pulley is not slipping on its shaft. I have used super glue to lock them down.
