well, bad news today- a few days ago i noticed the front truck in my U33C was falling out so i set it aside. Today i took the shell off and put the truck back in. I put it on the track and hooked it up to 8 cars. I turned up the power and she just sat there spinning. So i removed the shell only to find the front driveshaft was broken. I found the shaft and one end is gone. I removed the worm gear from the front so i can at run it but i can't pull anything. I can live w/o the U33C for a while. Next month i'll probobly get another engine anyway. I'll contact Atlas and get a new driveshaft sometime.
