Bowser O Brill Trolley | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Bobby OgageOGR Forum Member

I have a Bowser O-gauge Brill with tinplate wheels that needs work. However I do not have a parts diagram. This trolley has an open frame motor (pre-can motor). I would appreciate it a whole bunch if a Bowser owner with a trolley like mine would scan its instructions and parts diagram paperwork and email it to me.

Thanks Mitch. On my double truck Bowser Brill, the tinplate type wheels hit the car body limiting the cars turning radius.

Yeah, with tinplate wheels, you can go down to 13.5" (O27), but not much beyond that.

All of my five (5) Bowser Brill Trolleys run without any problem on O-27 track

Our club has been running a Bowser Brill on 0-27 track for 20+ years. It just won't quit! The grooves in the pickups are incredible.
