Yes a chunk is missing where each set screw was. I think it was regauged from 7.25 to 7.5 and the axle wasn’t long enough creating a wobble.Rich_Carlstedt wrote: ↑Mon Jan 08, 2024 11:27 pm I don't see a broken spoke, but do see a crack

Re: Repairing the fratured spokes on the cast iron drive wheel
I have one that cracked through the set screws and is now a sloppy slip fit. Going to try loctite 680 and see what happens

Re: Paint question
Nothing over the primer or decals. Stored in a car barn. No issues so far.

Re: Paint question
2 heavy coats of rustoleum red oxide primer and Miracle graphics. 4 years of use now. Looks much more red in the picture than in person

Re: RC Controller recommendation wanted
2nd vote for Stephen Wassel. Affordable, plug and play, great communication, customizable, etc.
I have 4 of his units, can be set up for MU. Works with 4QD and RMI old style electric. He’ll also set them up for other systems. LOTS of safety built in.

Re: Tank car
I have never contacted them, but saved this site When I was planning a tank car. They make ends for tanks.
