47606odin Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Wondering if the stupid square bearing isn’t located quite right on that wheelset. They are a nuisance to get in place sometimes 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggies1961 Posted April 25, 2021 Author Share Posted April 25, 2021 Thanks Ian, Iv been away this weekend so when I get home Im going to have a look. I believe 37405 has returned home to after being away so will check her over as well. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggies1961 Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 37405 is back on home rails. A few bits to glue and a missing socket from its time with Hornby magazine. There also appears to be a shorting issue with it as it keeps tripping out the NCE controllers, very odd indeed. Ordered a replacement small orange socket located under the buffer beam from Gaugemaster but they are out of stock.... typical! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggies1961 Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 I decided the brown ground colour wasn't right so its now grey and I can tone and weather this down in time. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggies1961 Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 An unusual view taken by the water tower (Rule 1 is it? Now a listed structure) shows 37405 alongside the goods shed. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's a whole axle and pair of wheels missing? Hat, coat... Ps re the orange socket, it might be worth a quick look on Google images to see if any of their other locos have similar? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On mine I did come to the conclusion that part of the problem was/could be there was so much grease that a foreign body/swarf had got trapped in between the gears.. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggies1961 Posted May 1, 2021 Author Share Posted May 1, 2021 Good news after removing the two wheels sets and replacing trying to reline gears the ‘clunking’ and jumping of wheel set has stopped. Getting the cover plate back on was an effort to say the least. Having fat fingers one screw has disappeared into the body. Thanks all for suggestions and help, much appreciated 7 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggies1961 Posted May 6, 2021 Author Share Posted May 6, 2021 Thanks Andy had a great day and enough cash as presents to get the 08. Which has arrived and had the departmental grey treatment. Can anyone point me in the right direction for cast double arrows for the 08? Many thanks. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
