Reply to "Lionel/AF '94ish 6-48048 SD-9 engines won't pass over traditional AF rerailers"

Hi -

"In the remote part of my layout I have 4 switches with 5 AF rerailers (old track style) and these Lionel engines get hung up - mabye the rubber drive wheel?? I'd consider taking the drive one off, the non-powered one shouldn't be a problem, is there another solution? AHHHHHH!"

"I have the Canadian National GP-9 from that era and it does the same thing. On mine, it is the screws holding the sideframe assembly on. Instead of being flush with the bottom like postwar diesels, the screw heads stick out and catch on the center of the re-railer."

With your permission I am going to paste this to Dave Olson. This is something Lionel may not be aware of and Dave has gotten some other matters straightened out.
