Does anyone know of Lionel's plan to help those of us who have a TMCC GG1 that has metal fatigue? Do all of the TMCCs (tuscan/green) do this also? Additionally, I have 3 Vision Line GG1s, will they also do this? My engine's power trucks have expanded to the point where they are touching one another. The trucks are not free to turn with the curve of the track (O72). It creates a dead short. There are no replacement parts that I know of. I checked the Lionel website.

Join the waiting list for replacement trucks. Lionel will not be reproducing these, but we are patiently waiting for a train enthusiast who is currently working on this project. Haven't heard of late where we stand on this.
Thanks. Is there danger of the later models (Vision Line) do this?
Lionel not reproducing or replacing these? Not cool Lionel! One more reason not to buy Lionel.

There is no way to tell now. Time will reveal the answer.
Thanks RoyBoy. I appreciate the link and your time. I am left wondering, if this project is ever completed, how we will know the trucks are on the market. We'll see I guess. Thanks again.
