Hi all. I know it's a long shot but I have to try. I am in deperate need of the rear truck off of an HO Bachman Spectrum 80 ton 3 truck Shay. It doesn't matter if the gears are cracked. There was a horrible Catzilla attack on the Lestock sub of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Thankfully damage was contained to only my Shay. If there is anyone that can help me out please let me know. Thanks in advance.
Seems like an expensive and unusual part to find. What parts are damaged on your model? The truck sideframes? Have you tried gluing it back together? You may need to make a 3D printed replacement. Finding another Shay being parted out seems unlikely.
Well, I gave up on quickly finding parts for my beloved Shay. I found a Spectrum Shay on Ebay that was listed in as new condition for a decent price. It should be here Tuesday. I'll keep my other one just in case I stumble accross a truck somewhere.
