Hey guys. I'm looking to trade this powered Athearn chassis for a powered F-7 chassis. Can anyone help me out?
The frame is slightly warped (see pics) but everything on it works and it runs just fine (it could use a cleaning). I may have some other Athearn stuff to trade if anyone has an F-7 chassis (or two )

Hey Gareth. I've been in the States.
I'm looking for a geared one. It doesn't matter which one as long as it's for an F7 and it runs.

I'll have a look when I get moved, end of August. Probably the week after. Don't recollect having an extra geared one. Several HI-F's.
Hey btw, have you got extra "beater" Mantua or Tyco streamline cars? I need three for a project. I have three MP CPR Passenger streamliners still in the box for trade. Appear to be new...

Alright thanks I checked Athearns website and they have new powered frames listed at $40. That seems like a lot to pay when there are used parts floating around for much less.
As for the passenger cars, I'm afraid I don't have any beaters. I'm actually looking for some myself. I want to paint a set to go with my Tyco Via engine.
Hey buss. Rubber band drives are what I'm trying to replace
Actually, if anyone wants to trade for a pair of these badasses, they're up for grabs too.

The chassie you are tradeing is from a early Stewart RS3. One which used Athearn drive parts. It is complete except for the missing Gas Tank which is a seperate casting. frank

Thanks! I couldn't figure out what it was. Now if I can't find a trade, I'll know what to put on it
