@colorado hirailer posted:Harnonyards ..three railing brass steam locos, (and a brass McKeen car, although l tackle other brass railcars with less complicated undercarriages ), and l could produce a long list of desires, some for which l had to pass up bargains, because they lacked wide flanges and center collector ,is a challenge. No chance you or someone does that professionally?
I will be offering these services and more when I retire in about a year from now,…especially doing 2 rail brass to 3 rail,…however, my approach is much more different then one would think,….when looking at a 2 rail brass model, I choose the best fit 3 rail MTH or Lionel chassis to my swaps,….two things happen doing this: no.1, you get a robust chassis, no.2 sell off the 2 rail chassis to recoup monies spent,….usually the brass 2 rail chassis holds a pretty healthy premium on the market,…..just my approach,….the 2 rail guys vomit at what I do,….😉
