1948 - 1949 Postwar Lionel 2026 Prairie Update

Karl_SturgeOGR Forum Member

Quick update on the 2026 repairs. I received the new front truck for the engine in the mail this morning. Truck has been installed and seems to be issue free thus far. Im still waiting on the green gem for the front marker light, should come in on Monday. Im having issues with the E - Unit still. Im posting a video of the engine malfunctioning when the E - Unit is switched out of a locked direction. If anyone has any solutions or advice to fix this it would be much appreciated!

Also quick update on the Pullman passenger cars. The observation car has a damaged wheel in the back with what looks like a dent. Can this wheel be repaired or should I just replace it? Im also posting a video of the 2026 pulling the Pullmans to demonstrate the loud clicking noise the damaged wheel makes while running.
