<p>Its no problem. Ive kept it because I have 3 of those, and at some point Im sure I will need to disassemble (adding weight, adjusting balance).. Note that if you do add weight, you need to keep it all balanced fwd/aft as best as you can. Also dont over tighten the pilot or trailing truck, as this screws up the balanced drive train. The main drive mechanism is from Shamagosa in Korea (of brass fame). In my opinion it is one of the best locomotive drives made.</p>
