==================================================================
One other point I forgot to mention, two of the three GP9s also wobbled. I
traced the problem to crooked wheel sets which would rotate in and out of
gauge. I did not realize this problem until I ran the engines upside down and
watched the wheels spin.
I used a NWSL puller to re-center the wheels to the correct gauge since
replacement wheel sets from NWSL were not available at the time.
