Hello, I'm just new to this site and i'm hoping to get some information about the type of drive system used under an AEM-7. From all the pictures I've been able to assemble off the NET, I can't figure out.....as my great grandson say's, "what make's the wheel's go 'round?" I know the GG-1, the Polar drive, the Pennsy side rod electric, but this engine's drive system escapes me. Is it the same as a diesel electric's, (I don't think so) or maybe it's the same as my MTH model of the same breed???? Two huge can motors hidden under the hood?? Since I bought this engine from eBay, I've gotten very curious about the real thing. The picture I have of the AEM's drive axle with the wheel's pressed on show's only the two disk brake rotors, no drive gear. Somebody on this site has my answer, and I'm hoping to hear from them. Thank's so much for any time you can spare with me. Bill Lester
