How do I convert a Model train locomotive to a dummy unit?
i have a HO scale locomotive and the engine wont work. I want to convert it to a dummy. It is a steam engine. I removed the engine, but its wheels don't turn like a dummy units, and my working engines can pull it. so how do i do it, the CORRECT way?
Unless I'm mistaken, unless you removed the side rods, they should stay synchronized. But, in order to get it to roll like a dummy unit, besides removing the motor, you'd also have to remove the gears from inside the gear box. At the very least, remove the worm gear. That's the gear that looks like a screw.
