2343 Pick up roller assembly
Posted by troystat on Monday, December 17, 2012 9:00 PM

Does anybody know if the pick up roller assembly for a 2343 is the same as a 623 or a 2333?  Also if you know the part # that would be great.  Lastly the sliding shoe on the assembly broke and I was wondering if you had to replace the whole assembly or can you get just the shoe. 

thanks

Same as 2333.  But a 2023-22 type collector will fit too, and will reduce sparking:

 

The parts to repair the shoe are the same as for any rolling stock.

I should have asked, are you a parts vendor or do you have a favorite vendor to buy them from.

take care

I am a repair tech, my parts come from The Train Tender when I don't have it myself.

Rob is correct. That part is all I use on all my old F3's that use that type of pickup.
