Part "A" goes into Slot "B"...

Now for assembly.  The axles were machined for a tight fit and used "red" Loctite as a lubricant as they were pressed onto the wheels.  Figured it wouldn't hurt to do both (press & glue).  The front and rear trucks were also installed.  This is what everything looked like so far.

 

The engine stand is the one I made and have the details here Engine Stand
