Reply to "Lionel 6-11333 ATSF 4-8-4 Northern #3759 Gears Slipping Going Forward, runs fine in reverse"

I contacted Lionel Parts and spoke to Aaron.  He is looking for a Drive Shaft/Dog Bone that is 3/16" longer than the Part 6308079145 that is listed as the correct drive shaft for the Lionel 6-11333 ATSF 4-8-4 Northern #3759.  He also said he would relay my concern about the new ATSF 4-8-4 Drive shafts being too short.

Again, thank you to everyone who posted pictures of their repair work and modifications to the drive shaft/Dog Bone.  My engine is running fine and pulling ten Pennsylvania 21" Broadway Limited passenger cars I detailed.

My next repair will be my Lionel 6-82768 Chesapeake and Ohio Allegheny #1604 that jerks down the track between speed step 22 and 110.  It had been serviced by Lionel and does not run properly upon its return to me. Now the warranty has expired.

Sincerely, John Rowlen
