Howdy DB! These live projects are pretty cool to watch. Sorry I couldn't watch it live. I kept wanting to comment then had to remember this was the night before lol. Every time I thought of something someone else mentioned it anyway so nothing lost 😁 Well done 🤠
Have you found a good replacement for the brushes and or brush springs? The brushes are usually pretty good, just dirty, but the springs can get cooked and either be deformed or broken. I haven't found a good replacement source.
Thanks for watching. The only thing that I found close is from the Bachmann pancake motors. I just keep a look out at train shows for parts engines. Yes, the springs can get cooked. Sometimes you can clean them enough to work, sometimes not.
Nice train collection Dave. Thanks for your service. Although I'm an Army vet, i still appreciate the show of support and respect for the men and women who served in our military. Thanks for sharing. Much love 👍🏾🤗
Thanks Tom. The search light was new old stock and worked right out of the box. Don't know if I should put LEDs in the caboose or not. Thanks for watching.
That is a cool military train set you have right there! Btw that engine is an alco fa-1. I won’t say that alco set is from the 1990s I would say I believe that is from 2012 because I have the Lionel catalog of it listing that item there. I could be wrong though.
You are correct, it is an Alco. Thanks for watching. I'm still trying to figure out the year. It does have electronic horn, whistle, and reversing unit.
What a cool looking train set! Great find Dave. I’m glad you took it upon yourself to buy it. The add on boxcars and other rolling stock you bought go great with it as well! Everything matches up nicely. Tom
@@TomzTrainzandAccessories I did it again! LOL. I was thinking of Toms Trains and Things. I'm on my way to Florida. Next time I'm in New York, I'll let you know. Thanks again for watching.
@@dbtech7914 That’s funny! LOL My door is always open to my train friends. Keep putting these great videos together and send them out. I look forward to them. Are you going to York in October? I’ll be there Thursday and Friday. We can definitely meet up then.
Thanks William. I learned a little bit on that project. I love how it runs. I had been looking for one for a year or two. Glad I finally found one for a good price.
Love these type of videos. Considering changing the title of the video to "repairing sound on doodle bug" or something. Get more hits that way. Great video.
Thanks for watching. It was a pretty good train meet. I think, because it was hot, there weren't as many sellers. I'm happy with the doodlebug purchase.
Nice haul you got from the kutztown train meet! I really like that doodlebug right there and I also liked everything you got. I hope you could find a special transformer for the doodlebug someday to play the sounds and crewtalk.
Nice Doodlebug David, cool that you got it running. You got some nice looking tankers too. I was planning on going to that show but it completely slipped my mind. Doh!
Thank you. I found a few things and didn't spend a ton of money. It was fun. LOL on the bean hopper. I'm going to have to find more of the Campbell's cars.
