Hmm after re-reading your post it makes me wonder something. <br /> <br /> Does this particular Loco have metal Coupler pockets at the ends of the undercarriage? If so that could be the bent part. I know that some of my Loco's are pretty fragile in that area and do seem to bend fairly easily if I put to much stress on the coupler pocket while working on the engine. <br /> <br /> Again the metal is usually very fragile and it might be best to take it to a local hobby shop and let them take a look at it. Just be careful to not fall for the "There is no hope for this unit you better buy this new one" syndrome some places like to try and pull. If it is a good qulality locomotive they should be able to either fix it for you or possibly send it to the manufacturer for repairs. But be prepared to have to pay for the repairs, wither way it should still be cheaper than buying a new one.
