RMweb Gold sjp23480 Posted December 21, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 21, 2020 Hello everyone, Season's greetings to everyone. My current T4 lockdown project is to rename and commission a Bachmann Jubilee ( the latest iteration of this lovely model). The detailing bag contains this component but the instructions don't tell you what it is or where it goes. Can any expert RMWebbers let me know what it is and where it goes? Thanks Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 31A Posted December 21, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 21, 2020 I haven't got a Jubilee myself so apologies if I get this wrong, but it looks like a crank that forms part of the brake linkage - several Bachmann locos that I have got, have similar parts. If so, somewhere beneath the cab there will be two brackets with holes which the two pins on that part fit into, and the end of the brake pull rod (part of the brake linkage moulding) probably has a pin on one end that fits into the hole in that part. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. Steve 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZ Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 One of Bachmann's failings is supplying extra parts and not showing where they go. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
