John Rowlen posted:"(The manual is wrong on both sets (of screws) listed.)" Why am I not surprised by this. I wonder what the Lionel technician did when he followed the manual instructions when servicing my engine.
Oh, I remember, He said, "I did the best I could."

On the 22nd (Sunday) you wrote "I am 100% supportive of Lionel".
2 days later (Tuesday) you posted the above (in red) which seems to be in conflict with your earlier statement.
I hope you can see why there might be some of us who are confused by this whole conversation...
My advice (which is worth nothing) would be: take a break from buying more locos and learn to repair the ones you already have (you have quite a few, so that should keep you busy). You'll save a ton of dough and have a lot more fun in the process...
