Sorry, I don't have any or ever worked on them. I do work on my own engines though.
Maybe something on the Lionel site?

Joe, thank you for the tip on linking to the Lionel Support site. (I never would have though that they would have data on what turned out to be an odd-ball Lionel product from 28 years ago!) I found exploded diagrams for both of my Lionel Large Scale 0-6-0 & 0-4-0 locos. It may be a bit tricky to remove those bottom plates, though. It looks like if you attempt to do so, a whole bunch of springs & brushes may pop out. The diagrams, appear to show that they jut from the side edges of the bottom plates to contact with the inside of each drive wheel. I will report back! xtree santa
