If they have 3/2 trucks than yes. If you give us a part number, we can check.

Sweet! I'm feeling an excuse to buy more MTH stuff!

Hey Mike,

I just wanted to give a public thanks for all the help I got so far.

Lots of parts fixing several (misfit) engines. Great work!

YES!!!

This is great news…thanks for letting us know, Mike!  Now can you ask the product sales/marketing side of the house if they’ll ever offer 3/2rail scale locomotives with fixed pilots and full-length handrails again??  Asking for a friend.

I don't have a part number as the boxes did not come with the locos.  all I know is they were equipped with port 2 and I switched it to TMCC as I do not have an MTH DCS system.

Okay, it looks like some earlier runs didn't have the 3/2 trucks, but later runs did. Can you post a picture of the underside of the locomotive? Alternatively, knowing the road name and road number would help in determining what the product # is.

Thanks for the heads up. I have a GP38-2 that appears to have a stripped helical gear.

Rick, unfortunately, it looks like both of the runs of the Lehigh Valley FA A-B-A sets that were run did not come with the 3/2 trucks. The item # for future reference are 20-2241-1 and 20-20057-1. I don't know which set you have exactly with out the road numbers of the locomotives. If you wanted to you could potentially look at finding the truck from a later run of the locomotives that have the 3/2 capability, getting one from the parts store to test for compatibility, and if it works out converting your whole set to the later version trucks with the 2 rail axles. Hopefully this helps.

They do not have any plain axle two wheel replacements any more. Those numbers are geared axles.
