Cause of bent axle
I discovered why some Bachman axles are wobbly, quite by accident.
I had run some axles on track & they ran true, I painted some, one started to roll off the shelf,
so as not to get paint all over myself, rather than try to catch it, I let it fall
result, bent axle, I think the weight of the wheels, & the thinness of the steel axle as it lands at an angle is the reason
