Hey George,

Sorry I missed your call earlier but I had my hands full with this conversion. Someone may have already done this but I could not find it by searching the forum.

This conversion was a little tricky because it involved D/Ting the metal chassis. It was time consumi ng but fairly simple to accomplish. I still have to paint and touch-up the pilots.

An other first class conversion, Thank You Malcolm. I just got done fixing the pilots and adding Kadee's to a new Lionel AT&SF FM H-16-44. Not an easy job to remove metal from trucks for coupler swing. I'll post photos.

Nice work, Malcolm. thumb

You've done a very good job of it.

I'm lucky in that I don't have to have the glad hands on my couplers.
