sievert torch

Hello All; I have a Sievert pro 88 torch . Recently the end that the burner tubes screw on got damaged. I was wondering if any of you can tell me the thread size. Hopefully I can repair it. Thanks in advance.

Re: engines for sale

With summer almost upon us. I have decided to reduce the price of the engines. The new asking price is $7000.oo each. Don't forget this includes one piece of rolling stock and racks to move them. As always any reasonable offers will be considered .

guage change

I have had someone ask about re-guaging a 7.25 Loco to 7.50. Has any ever done this. If so how difficult was it?
