the chessie motor( if its the same one im thinking of) only needs new points … mine did the same thing its got two small points inside held in by tiny springs… dont loose the springs…unreplacable hope that works
@TrackMaster555 The body does come off easily but I wouldn’t know what to do with the motor to get it fixed, I just need to get one of my friends to take a look at it.
@jarrod989 Actually its the opposite with me. I love Knuckle Couplers and have no problem finding trains with them. In fact I recently bought a steam locomotive that was made some time ago and it has a knuckle coupler on its tender. I’m also going to convert my train cars to knuckle couplers. Horn hook couplers don’t hold together well on bumps either.
Railway modelling UK, Australia, Ireland and Canada or model railroading US and Canada is a hobby in which rail transport systems are modelled at a reduced scale. The scale models include locomotives, rolling stock, streetcars, tracks, signalling, and roads, buildings, vehicles, model figures, lights, and features such as streams, hills and canyons.The earliest model railways were the 'carpet railways' in the 1840s. Electric trains appeared around the turn of the 20th century. But these were crude likenesses. Model trains today are more realistic.

@xxHaloVidsxx No, the cleaners who put the locomotives away in boxes broke them. Can you read numb-nuts?
November 22nd, 2011 - 09:02
Did you go to the train shop. They coude fix the engines that broke in the fire and they could look at the Chessie System and see why it never worked.
November 22nd, 2011 - 09:12

Did you try looking at the motor in the chessie system F7. You could probably take the body off easily
November 22nd, 2011 - 11:00
@jarrod989 yeah dude I would go with knuckle couplers. Horn hook is really old and I doubt you can find any newer trains with them
November 22nd, 2011 - 11:59
