Bill, I have a 2 truck shay with the latest trucks. If I don't sell it or give it away, I will convert to DCC. Do you have an idea what the simplest way is to disconnect the motors from the pickups?

Thanks, Greg

Thanks KC, but I am DCC, and track powered, so I cannot remove the track pickups, but have to separate them from the motors. I was hoping to find out without disassembling to see how tough it is going to be... If it's really going to be a pain, then I may be giving the loco away for Christmas.

Regards, Greg

I do have the new trucks on it, bought a couple of years ago. The old ones had a few cracks in the plastic bottoms, but no running problems. But, I figured what the heck. I will check for the reversing switch, good tip.

By the way, if someone wants to drop by and get 2 free trucks, email me (pick up in San Diego).

Regards, Greg
