Slide to roller pickup conversion
« on: January 07, 2017, 02:28:26 pm »
Hello,
New to this forum.  Thanks for having me.  I’m thinking about adding a 1655 engine and tender or perhaps even the whole Lionel 1423W freight set.  But I would want to convert the 1655 from the slide pickup to roller pickup.  Does anyone know the parts and part numbers I need to do this slide to roller pickup conversion?  Or, is there a complete shoe assembly from another model engine that I could buy that already has roller pickups that would fit the 1655?  Thanks in advance.
Rick
