IN NEED OF HELP

Post by Trainman4602 »

Hi All

As you all know I am progressing with the 0-4-0 project. There has been enough sales to warrant me making the remainder of the casting set.

I will be offering all the casting that I sold back in the old Mercer days pre 1990.

One of the things I offered was the spring set.

I have the leaf springs covered but I'm in need of help with the coil springs

So I'm asking the question to all the Mercer Camelback owners. Would any of you be able to tell me what size the coil springs are?

I lost my info on them. I know that there are two different sizes. The front two under the leaf spring are heaver then the eight rear springs

I know the diameter is 1/2 inch for both types but I need to know the length and wire sizes.

Thanks Dave
