North Shore runs again!!! (pics 56kers)
Posted by dinwitty on Monday, July 14, 2008 8:19 PM

at least on my test track. Last couple of days I dug into these cars to start getting them in shape, they now all run.

This is a walthers parlor car, I got this off ebay, the builder put a pantagraph on it and has 2 tenshodo spuds, interior lights anda motor man on each end. Directional headlights even! Fixed wiring, lubed the trucks, runs smooth. Missing door as seen but I have that.

Needs side frames, which I have, still needs work, all these cars. BTW all cars shown RUN!!!

2 cars coupled, bought at a local hobbyshop, was surprised to see them there, instabuy, always make sure you have money on hand when you see something interesting. NWSL PDTs run these.

another ebay pick, all maroon with decals, uses the spring drive.

 

from an ebay collection of NS cars, with PDT power

 

again from collection, with spring drive. 

I need to get the wide swing couplers on and lash this troup up!

1 more car needs a pdt fixed and a few other cars are non-powered not shown here.

Just recieved this today off ebay, South Shore coach, runs fine! needs some paint work.
