       Loose Coupling Rod
       By: Bill Bakkas Date: December 2, 2016, 10:47 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!

       Usually you just tighten whatever screws are holding them in
       place. If this does not help, post a clear picture of the right
       side wheels and rods.
       Which catalog number engine do you have?
