Rayman4449 Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Hi Seth, I know you were looking to post some pics in another thread. Can you post some photos of the engines and maybe include a photo of the bottoms? Unless the engines have traction tires (that would be missing and needing to be added) the only real way would be to figure out a way to add some lead weight. To do that without opening them up you could add weight inside the cap (assuming it's open where you can) and possibly take the smoke box face off and if you have some room there add some up front. In either case I would wrap them in black electrical tape to minimize the lead exposure in handling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trainz1218 Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 Thanks! I was hoping to get my Echo mogul back soon. I got it for Christmas. But, It didn't work. So, My grandpa Loaned me the 1987 mogul while he fixed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
