Only one of the Stanton Drives has a motor, the other one is a Dummy drive. Only the line shafts from one truck turn the crankshaft on the 2-cylinder motor.
The other one looks like it does but the inter shaft is round and just spines. Also I only use one gear on each line shaft. The movement is cosmetic, the movement only makes it look like it is doing something.
One gear on each line shaft is much easier to align to the bevel gear on the wheel then two gears and they don't really show. I will show some pictures of what this looks like when I get to that part. Slip shaft may be a good way to describe what is happening. It seems to me the solution would be to put a small second animation only motor [pager type] on the drive line, securing the drive shaft ends at either truck in a slip sleeve.
Thus, you'd see the shaft turn, but it wouldn't actually turn the wheels at all, and the wheels wouldn't turn the gears at all either. That being said, I don't know where the second motor could be hidden nor how it would tie into the driveshaft. Benny's Index or Somewhere Chasing Rabbits. They sell on ebay from time to time and often for much more then I would pay. If you look for it and don't like the price check your local library and see if they can get you a copy using the Inter-library loan program.
I also have collected many articles from web sites and magazines about building them. I actually have a couple of ideas for something like your comment.
I thought about using a small motor to move the line shafts since I have space. Using the Stanton Drives leaves the space where the gear tower would have been available for a small motor. I even have several small motors that might work. I have a few parts to round up and I might try it. I installed the line shafts on the rear truck and they roll reasonability smooth.
I will be working on the front later today and then connect the complete drive line and see how that works. If you were able to get the power to transfer smoothly from the geared wheels, of course, then all your issues are gone. Yes, but it is still an interesting idea. Maybe something for a long holiday weekend whenever the next one comes around. Looking forward to hearing more about this project as I'm always interested to hear about Stanton drives out in the field--how they are being used, how they perform, how to adapt them to DCC.
I have a couple of repowering projects that will use Stanton drives and I am curious about how they work out. I have built and or rebuilt six Shay kits two and three truck models. All are still running with four still in my collection.
All were originally "carefully" assembled with stock parts often as with your experience from several "scrapped" kits , and operated for several years with few problems. When I started noticing some problems with one loc, I decided given the history of these locs that it was time for a general rebuild and updated all with NWSL parts. I also swapped out the original motors for smaller 7 pole motors without flywheels to allow more space for decoders.
I queried Oso and got the following interesting response. Not good news for someone really wanting this book. Try www. Sorry we couldn't be of more help. Box Shipping address: Grantsdale Cem. Glen Haasdyk Active Member. Feb 3, 1, 0 36 50 Kelowna, BC Visit site.
Thanks for the Link Fred. Dec 17, 3, 0 36 84 UK. I was at that time making a shay-garrett. Thanks to all you guys. I sure appreciate your help. Jim Krause Active Member. Apr 7, 1, 0 36 87 Polson, MT. I've often wondered how many of those Roundhouse Shay kits actually got completed and operational? Seems like a lot of people still have them on a shelf or in a box, waiting to be put together.
One of our club members has one on his module, assembled but not operational. Dragon Member. That means bad. But I figured since someone had gone to the trouble of installing DCC and sound, and detailed, painted and weathered it, how bad could it be?
Well, it's getting power, because it makes the right idling sounds. It will move about 6 inches on command NCE cab then goes dead. Whistle and bell work during that short run. Is there a person out there willing to tackle a repair, or recommend someone? Thanks, all. Quote 0 0. If any loco does not run well on analog, it won't work well on DCC.

Thanks, but. I stand in awe of the Prof's knowledge of virtually every phase of model railroading. I also do not know how to thank him for his detailed instructions on MDC Shay-fixing.
My time to invest in the Shay is limited. Serious illness gives me a possibly short future. I'm working at beating the clinical odds, but who knows?
So the question is -- is their anyone out there who will undertake to fix my Shay for me? Or should I just put it back on eBay?
