There must be one...but, I can't find it. So...will someone point me to a thread or topic that covers the safe removal of 3-rail trucks from modern MTH freight cars? I am in the midst attempting to convert some MTH freight cars...specifically MTH modern tank cars such as 20-96716 to 2-rail scale wheel sets. Frankly, I can't figure out how to remove the 3-rail truck without damaging the "brake gear" on the car.
Is there a safe way to do this...or...does that brake gear get sacrificed to remove the trucks?
Thanks for any kind response and continued patience.
