Lionel Maintenance & Repair / Loose Coupling Rod
« on: December 02, 2016, 10:47:26 am »
I have a polar express o gauge train set.  I took off the metal shell to look at the smoke unit to replace it.  When I put the shell back on, I noticed that on the right side, the coupling rods are loose.  With the shell on, the coupling rods run into something and make it hard for the train to move.  How can I tighten coupling rods??
Thanks!

I have a lionel polar express O-gauge train set.  The smoke produced from the smoke unit smells bad.  It isn't a burning smell, but it smells bad enough to the point where I just leave the smoke off.  I have tried a few different brands of scented smoke but they smell even worse than lionel's normal smoke.  Is this a defective smoke unit? Can I fix it or replace it?  Please reply!
Thanks
