I just installed a Bowser turntable which I'd purchased back in '03, along with
the motor unit. I painted the wood and brass interior pit with Floquil Concrete
and will handpaint the ties, and installed the bridge which is long enough to
accomodate a RR 2-10-4. I haven't built up the bridge kit yet, but it seems
like it won't be too difficult. I did have to replace some gears in the motor
which had disintegrated over the years but Bowser sent replacements. I'll
probably use the five finger method or pulse the motor to make sure the tracks
are absolutely aligned. Everything works well so far, no complaints. The only
problem may be that, I think, Bowser has closed out its line of turntables.
Would imagine some can be found online.
