Part numbers for post war tenders
Posted by KRM on Saturday, March 9, 2013 6:25 PM

Question,

Is there a place where you can find part numbers for post war tenders? I don''t see any in the Greenberg book other than tender whistle parts. I am looking for the coupler for a 1615T. I am thinking it is a 480-25 But there is not one on the tender so I can't be sure.

Thanks

Thank you Rob. Smile

 Where did you get those numbers? Am I missing or overlooking something in my book?

I'm not sure what book you have, but this is from the 1615 section of my original 1970's Greenberg 3 volume set.

Thanks again Rob,

 I have the Kalmbach Seventh Edition single book and it is not in my book under the 1615.

The small format editions of the Lionel service manuals do not include most parts lists. There are several options for folks who would like a relatively complete manual.

HSL put together a DVD. I believe publisher states it contains around 1800 pages. While I have other HSL DVDs, I have not seen this one.

Over the years, Greenberg put together several different large format Lionel Service Manual sets.

One can visit the Olsens Parts web site:

It is difficult to define what constitutes a complete manual. It was offered for many years, and updates were issued periodically. Service stations were advised to discard old pages. Some saved the obsolete pages, others did not. I am reasonably certain that my edition of the large format Greenberg manual is missing some material. I found what I needed on the Olsens site.,
