Hi, I wondered if the experts here could advise me, please on an issue with the little "Prince" 009 loco? Mine has popped the 2 small pins that hold the connecting rod / crank rod to the rear wheel (my fault!!) I have the pins but it's not clear to me how these should attach - there is no thread on them, and I wondered if these simply push back into place, but if so, what's to stop them coming out again? I don't want to risk losing them next time! Any advice would be gratefully received. Many thanks. Geoff

Thank you for the suggestion - I'm also going to my model shop tomorrow to see what they reckon on my chances of another warranty replacement - I've had this model for about a year but it's hardly been used

I'm now on my 3rd Bachmann Baldwin which has just gone pop yesterday with this same problem. Using a Gaugemaster Combi controller - has anyone else had further problems with this model? Would converting it to DCC help at all? Any thoughts very helpful - thank you!
