MT-19 Temporary Axle splint. If you have ever been on an excursion where a 19 axle breaks you know that it royally sucks for everyone and the person who owns the car wins the most unpopular member vote. A long split collar can facilitate a TEMPORARY fix better than a rolled up pop can and hose clamps to get the car off the track safely. This is a must for 19 field repair kits. Price is $125 post paid. Contact Dave myers at: dave@redspeeder.com or 928-380-7056


Fairmont transmission sprockets. If you have a Briggs or Honda conversion you know that the standard Fairmont sprocket ratios designed for Onan's are other than ideal and these engines are not exactly happy campers. They tend to lug at lower speeds and you need to be going too fast to even approach the optimum torque curve. I have a limited number of tapered bore, tapered key Fairmont transmission sprockets available. The 17 tooth seems to be ideal for touring at track speeds and the smaller ones (14,15, & 16) are best for narrow gauge cars and cars normally operated at low speeds or towing work trailers. Price for a single #50 chain sprocket is $125 post paid and the price for a double #40 sprocket is $225 post paid. The doubles are significantly more involved and only available by special order. A 20 tooth (smaller teeth) double sprocket is ideal for track speeds. Also available are low profile sprocket pullers for removal of the old sprocket in the car. Price is $30 post paid.Contact Dave Myers at dave@redspeeder.com or 928-380-7056.

Wheel Inspection Tools - The wheel profile is necessary to determine whether the wheel is flat. Often the wheel is very thin in the flange area and the profile will show that. It will show any wear that the wheel has between the flange and the flat section of the wheel. The gauge is necessary to determine whether there is enough thickness in the flange area to give a safe ride. NARCOA rules say that you must have at least 1/8" in throughout the wheel to have a safe wheel. However, this does not guarantee that you will not “hunt” on the rails if you have a wheel that is flat or has no profile.

One wheel profile for $6 plus $4.25 shipping

One caliper for $10 plus $5.65 shipping

Two profiles for $12 plus 4.25 shipping

One profile and one caliper for $20 includes shipping

Two profiles and one caliper for $26 includes shipping

To order these inspection tools, contact (Please make checks payable to NARCOA):

New Double Chain Sprocket Kits.   If you've ever lost a chain....I can help.   The Canadian Railways used double chain sprockets on their Fairmont speeders because they didn't want their employees stranded 65 miles out of town with chain problems.   This kit is a direct replacement for the single system found on most U.S. Fairmonts and fits both the MT-19 & Mt-14.  All you have to do is replace the existing three single chain sprockets (the transmission, idler and final drive) with these new Canadian made double chain sprockets,  measure and order the necessary length of #40 double chain from your local bearing house, assemble the kit on your car and enjoy the peace of mind that you're never going to throw another chain again.  Kit is priced at $150.00 plus $35.00 shipping.  If you happen to have the double idler system and need an extra idler sprocket, they are $45.00 each.  Tom Phair, 152 La Sonoma Way, Alamo, CA  94507  (925) 820-4159 or e-mail  tom@phairs.net

 

High quality NOS American Made hard hats are available with the famed McCloud Railway Company logo on them.   The McCloud Railway is one of last remaining logging railroads in North America.   This historic railroad, founded in 1897, has maintained a vital service to the lumber industry in Northern California for almost 110 years.   The  Surface Transportation Board has approved abandonment of the majority of it's track and it now has been shut down.  Another Railroad gone...but not forgotten.  These hard hats are available for $9.95 each plus $5.00 shipping and handling.  Tom Phair, 152 La Sonoma Way, Alamo, CA  94507 (925) 820-4159 or e-mail  tom@phairs.net
