QUOTE: Originally posted by ntypeman Thanks for the helpful advice so far..... if I get/got replacement Athearn axles do I need to be concerned about sizes / gear ratios or are they all a standard part???? ( What I mean is, is the axle on a GP30 the SAME as on a SD60M / GP38 etc...) Gary... will try and keep you informed.... Dave Kelly... If you see this... Who are Horizon and where can I find them??? boy.... I bet you think that we "over the pond" are dumb,.......

QUOTE: Originally posted by davekelly The horizon site is kinda difficult to navigate. I took several searches to get the thing to work. Here are the part numbers that were posted on a way earlier thread: Part #60024 is the correct # for the gear only. Part #40019 is the complete wheel assembly. Use the part number as the search term on horizonhobby.com and it should come right up. I ordered a bunch of each, but have yet to install them. My plan is to replace the gears/axles as I instill decoders. My thought is that I might as well replace the things now while I have the engine disassembled for decoder installation.
