I was changing out a traction tire on an MTH E6 loco today and discovered that one of the screws that hold the truck side frame on seemed to be stripped. Either the screw or the hole where it goes. I guess the only cure is to drill and tap a new hole in the truck block and get a new screw. Maybe I could just crazy glue it temporarily but that might be problematic if I have to take it apart again at some future date. This whole procedure is very time consuming on this particular engine. It is one of the older ones where you have to take the motor out and drop the truck and also loosen a screw and spring with washer holding the rear of the truck to get at the side frame screws. What a pain! At least the newer models have accessible side frame screws without taking the whole engine apart. Any comments welcomed.
