Thanks Gunrunner John, You saved me again. I meant Dave Olsen, the guy who loves tacos.

I should blame Gunrunner John for this mess. If I hadn't put YLB Batteries in all my Lionel Steam engines, I would not have discovered that the ATSF Northern #3759 did not run properly.

I am in uncharted territory, opening up steam engines and trying to fix them. I have transferred six non-powered GP35 engine shells unto motorized sound GP35 chassis to create several three powered unit consists, but steam has been an unknown. I guess I can take on any engine and try to fix it. If I fail, I can send the box of parts to Gunrunner John.

Sincerely, John Rowlen
