LGB Starter Set Passenger Car Alteration

[Madman]

In a past post, like way back, someone posted the merits of fixing LGB two axle rolling stock axles in a rigid position. After some issues with my two axle 300 mm LGB rolling stock, I decided to try it. Here's what I came up with. I ripped a pice of hardwood down so that it would fit above the axle. I inserted screws through the wood and into the holes already in the coupler stems. Next I drilled a 1/16" hole through the wood and into the coupler stem. Then I inserted a piece of 1/16" diameter brass rod. In the second photo you can see the brass rod a bit more clearly. So far, after a few hours of running, I have had no issues anywhere on the railway.

Yes they do 'crab' when coing off a curve on to a straight section. Just an observation, but I don't think you needed to add the brass rod.
