Hello all,

Don't know if anyone has tried this before ,wanted to give it a try and it seemed to have worked out okay. Gave it a long test this afternoon and so far it's holding up well. As we know the journals have zinc rot issues (TMCC model only) and the parts are no longer available from Lionel, So i decided to see if the passenger car journals would work.

I ordered a passenger car truck took it apart and started matching it up to the power truck journal, it's not to far off . A few minor adjustments some light filing and moving a few things around , made it work pretty good. The original journals were completely busted, so this was worth trying or the engine would have been a shelf queen.

See videos and pictures , I'll be happy to answer any questions. Videos and pictures to follow shortly.

Thanks for looking , Alex
