I'm not sure how to upload a pic, can you tell me how?

 

Go to the head of the "Topic" column, Bob Keller has a post explaining how it's done.

Did Lionel make an 8300 with 3 sets of wheels

Are you saying you have a 2-6-0 instead of a 2-4-0? Lets see a pic.

The 8300 locomotive had 2 sets  of drive wheels.

Here is one for sale.

I am new here and I recently found a Lionel 8300 locomotive at a thrift store and have done some research and all the ones I have seen have 2 wheels. This one has 3 sets of wheels. Did Lionel make an 8300 with 3 sets of wheels or did someone replace the original with this one? I know its from a starter set from the 70's I believe. I think it looks cool and was just curious. Hope someone can answer my question. I am not sure how to upload a picture of it. If someone can help me with that too, that would be great

Thanks
