Well while cleaning my nice 2-8-2 heavy pacific, I dropped the tender breaking the coupler and the carrier for the coupler.. I am very happy with everything at the moment. ANYONE know where to get bits for this... Its way too good to scrap. <font color=red size=8>HELP</font> ------------------ RR: K, C, & Bird Butt Railroad - SP, NS, and ROCK admirer.

The place to get actual Rivarossi parts is Golf Manor Hobbies in Cincinnati, Ohio. There phone number is 513-351-3849. If the model you are working on was also a Con-cor model, then it would be cheaper to go to them. Case in point: I purchased a new bodyshell from Golf Manor that was genuine Rivarossi for a 4-6-2 Pacific and it cost $30.00. Then I needed another so I went to Con-cor for the exact same shell and paid $12.00. The only difference was I stripped both these shells (they both came painted in the same scheme) and the genuine RR paint wouldn't come off and the paint on the Con-cor painted shell came off in one operation. Hope this helps and if you need a tender I have several different styles, all RR, that I may be persuaded to part with. Dale
