I think it would be very difficult to replace the trucks on an older Tyco engine. All manufacturers use different mounting methods. Unless you had the trucks from a similar engine. <br /> <br />Might be easier to add the shell to an Athearn power chassis. I have no idea what might fit. A long time ago I added a GP30 shell (I forget the maker) to an Athearn GP-35 chassis. I had to make the mounts so it would fit, but it worked OK. <br /> <br />Bob Boudreau
