A wooden trolley car that runs

[ezdays]

I am approaching a giant step in the build process, step 3 finished the wheels, so now the drive motor gears and the wheel gears need to be connected. I just spent about 2 1/2 hours building the gears to do just that. It took that amount of time because all the gears needed to be waxed. The kit included two sticks of wax and I wondered why, now I know.

Step 3 wheels, the inside four and driven, the outside four are free wheeling:
   

Step 4 gears, this should be all the gears necessary for running this trolley, the conductor is actually the run/stop switch:
   

In case anyone is interested, this is my work area. The easel holds the instruction book and a sheet showing all the mechanical parts by designation, all the part sheets are in order, A-H. Everything is arranged so that I can use the mag lamp to see the assembly instructions then swing it over to do the assembly. I would be lost without that lamp.
