WTB Bachmann 2-8-0 tender truck

I want to buy the rear truck frame on the tender it got hot and melted on my Bachmann 2-8-0 N Scale Consolidation.  The part number shown N811X-00T01 on its paperwork. I'll except a truck frame, a complete truck or a complete tender with trucks, whatever is available? Bachmann said they have nothing. 

Thanks,

Joe

Which Bachmann 2-8-0 do you have?

I have two "spare" (meaning not in use) tender trucks that are either from the Bachmann DCC "On Board" 4-6-0 or the non-DCC 2-8-0 (I believe these locos used the same tender trucks... bought from Bachmann parts, but don't recall which model they were from, since I used both versions in my bash projects), and three complete tenders: 2 from the DCC On-Board 4-6-0s, complete with factory DCC boards (one UP and the other NYC); and one from the "Sound value" 2-8-0 (UP #619), complete with factory Soundtraxx Economi sound board. Altho' I would consider any of the above "available," my first choice would be one of the 4-6-0 tenders.

PM me...

IIRC, all the Bachmann Spectrum tender trucks will interchange with each other. Short, Medium, and Long.
So any of the two axle Spectrum trucks will work on your Connie tender.

The engine I have is a Bachmann Spectrum 2-8-0 Consolidation. It is the 1st version 2001. The rear tender truck shorted and melted where the metal contacts pass through the truck.

@CNR5529 has done some nice 3D printed trucks for use on spectrum tenders. They use the bachman pickups and wheels.
