Hi I have a Lionel Conrail SD60 item number : 6-18216. The issue is when I put it on the track it won't move.  I found after picking it up the back trucks spin when I move the wheels and you can see the motor spin as it should ,  the front truck gears spin but the motor doesn't .  It looks like there is a piece missing from the motor to the gears in the truck .  Can anyone help me with this?  Where may I find either a new motor with the right parts.

It appears that the center wheel set has a gear that meshes with the worm on the motor. There is a small bushing at the end of that worm in the housing. I would think you'd need to describe what piece is missing better?

I'll try and get a picture of it .  Hopefully I can find the piece .  I'm thinking it's the worm gear.
