I have a Marx 495 that I have been tinkering with for about 5 years now, and finally got it to run. However, the armature knocks into the nut used to attatch the pickup to the bottom, and shorts the locomotive. Did Marx make a smaller armature I could substitute? Can I substitute a Lionel armature if I add the bearing and gear from the Marx one?
Issue fixed.
