Recently I bought an F3 All Nation kit from eBay. When I went to assemble it I found all the bearings and clips to hold the trucks together missing. I figure the kit lasted this long because parts were missing, the guy I bought it from did not know and sold it as is. I managed to file 3/16 brass rod in a drill press and got it to fit the side frames but finding center to drill out a #41 drill is going to be harder with cataracts. I was looking at Pininterest and I came across a scrapper with weird paint marks, I checked and sure enough I found another engine with the number boards higher at the engineer's side. Am I the first person to notice this?
