Reply to "Recent Ives 1134 purchase, video added"

I think I also have an answer on the lever in the cab, where it’s presence indicated no e-unit.  It was used as a manual switch for reversing the engine.

I would like to buy new side rods for it, any leads on who would sell them would be great.  I thought MTH, but it’s parts  web site doesn’t have much on the Ives engines.



Correct.  Your locomotive has an "R" unit as seen in the motor pictures.  No cab lever necessary.



I don't think anyone is reproducing the rods currently.  You can try calling Hennings trains and see if they have any left, but I no longer see them listed on their website in the Ives parts.  Hennings was selling off all the old M.E.W. stock for awhile.
