Amongst the abandoned projects I started out in 3RO with, was this 1960s Rivarossi Casey Jones 4-6-0. It seemed to turn, but failed on the club test track, but I had no immediate use for it so I put it aside until I had more time.
Ive just stripped the wheelset and chassis. The wheels and axles seem straight, the little bronze “spring” on the centre axle needed re-shaping... the chassis seems slightly out of square, though. Not much, but it does have a bit of a “limp”.
However it runs nicely otherwise, so I’ve put it aside again. Perhaps I’ll give it some running in time on the rolling road.
