Does anyone know who makes after market large all metal gearboxes to be used in O scale large locomotives 4-8-2's and larger. Is this gentleman named Timko do this kind of work ?

He made a gear box for the 2344 F3 conversion. You could ask.

I've dealt with Frankl Timko for a few years now and his work is wonderful. Highly recommended. You should contact him with your specific question. Sometimes it takes him a bit of time to reply, but he will.

Good luck,

As far as I know, Frank Timko can do just about anything. He just re-motored an old brass 0-4-0T for me, and did a great job. Highly recommended.
