Reply to "Lionel GG1 JLC (not "Legacy) truck restoration in brass."

We will figure this out.  Bob Stevenson has a preliminary guess at $270 per locomotive, based on new molds.  But the molds themselves will be expensive; it will take 1/2 gallon of liquid rubber,and that stuff is $230 per gallon!

I am trying to get my hands on a Legacy part.  I will know more on that early next week - or if you have a connection with Mike, see if he could send a casting?  If they modified it, perhaps we could modify it back?

Let me get a few photos posted - one idea is to use Wolfer truck sides and the Lionel tongue and bolster. For that, all I would need is a "bowed, but not crumbling" casting.
