The first is a Bachmann 4-8-4 needs some TLC.I think I have the right set up with the engine and tender?? I need the 4 truck for the rear of the engine. Works fine. The second is a Rivorossi 2-8-4 I thing I have the right tender for it??? Works fine needs some TLC.

The 2-8-4 Berc looks complete, looks to be only missing some steps on the tender. It appears that the cab and sand dome graphics have been removed as well.

The Bachmann's rods tell me that its driver gears are split and going out of quarter, she's needing some work bad.

Hi Shay, I have the drive wheels fixed now I need to get a section of the valve gear as you can see is missing from this picture. I also need the rear truck for the engine. It runs well under test and the drivers seem ok  I was wondering why the number on the cab is gold and on the number plate on the front of the boiler and the tender are white?? Are parts available for it. Ken
