I need to find out the brand name of the spring/brush set I bought so we
can list it for others.
Thanks,
John O'Neal

Hi,
Alright! I'm glad you found some brushes and springs. I hope that is
the only
thing wrong with the motor.
I used the Micro-Trains conversion on the IHB 0-8-0 which includes a
replacement pilot that has an MT coupler mounted on it. That was many
years
ago. The
MT conversion is their catalog number 1041. There is some cutting
involved.
You
have to cut the original pilot away from the cylinder block and attach
the
new one from the MT conversion. The tender conversion is just
replacing the
original rear truck with one supplied with an MT coupler mounted. You
just
move
the wheels, wheel wipers, and screw to the new truck. It's not one of the
easiest conversions but it wasn't too bad. The AT&SF 0-8-0 is as it
came from
Atlas
with a dummy knuckle on the front and Rapido on the tender.
Keep me posted on your progress.
Regards,
Doug
Hmmmmm.......I could have sworn that I sent this to the private party
and not
the list. Must not be that good a swearing. Oh well, no real harm done.
