I've just used Eric's tip, work fine now. Would be better to machine them but that would require asking somone with the skill of wheel turning

.

Well If it works. Still seems a bit dodgy though.

Surely it would have been cheaper to just fit a section of fuel line to each end of the axel like Tag G has... works perfectly well...

Profile of the flanges Pete, Garden Rail also suggests that Accy wil provide spacers to prevent the side movement.

Am I the only one who has yet to have a major issue with these carriges or any accucraft stuff. I keep hearing horrer stories off everyone but yet to have any problems myself. Exept for a blocked staem line but that can happen to anyone.

No your not, the piston valves on my Edrig nearly fell off the spindles, but that was an easy fix when you know somone who knows what they're doing.

Well, my L&B wagon has never given me any trouble...

These have G scale flanges and we run on SM32.

Ive never had the pistons fall off the spindles but ive had the spindle come away from the cross head so it was running on one cylinder. I wondered why it was running a bit lumpy that day.
