<p>Sheldon,</p> <p>If the design was better, I would have never had to disassble the 2-8-0 to get at the wipers which had for some reason decided to collect dirt. My Athearn Mikados do not have this problem, as power is picked up through the absolutly beautiful Shamagosa mechanism that works excellently. But for $225 (Spectrum DCC sound) I expect a somewhat better design, especially since a also own a BLI USRA Light Pacific that also doesnt use this pickup system and costs the same amount of money. </p> <p>Edit: I did have to fix one of the power wires on the Athearn Mike that I broke when installing a decoder. </p> <p>Back to the topic of the Original Post:</p> <p>How do you disassemble the tender on the Spectrum 4-6-0?</p> <p> </p> <p>Andrew</p> <p> </p>
