Reply to "497 Coaling Station 6-14107 Bin Won’t Lower"

The 6-14107 version has the dc motor/gearbox assembly with a rubber band drive.  When this assembly sits for a long period of time, the rubber band tends to slip on the two pulleys because it retains the shape it has been in for however long it has been sitting there.  I have had luck simply flipping the rubber band inside out.  I've also read here that guys will place the rubber band in warm water so it returns to its round shape.  The gearbox isn't difficult to pull apart.

There are other electrical considerations with this model (if using both PW and modern dump cars).  I won't get into it because you didn't ask.  I can point you to some resources if needed.
