Sorry for the small size pic but I just copied and pasted from ebay. There are many listed now.

Kev - If I'm not correct please tell me. But when I post from photobucket I can enlarge the pic once it's posted by double clicking on the posted pic, and it doubles the size. From shutterfly it doesn't have this option?

There are many ways to upload pictures. Shutterfly is one, I use Photobucket. They are all free. All you have to do is create an account and there you go.

As for the electric pickup on the American Flyer 3211. I believe it should have a roller pickup as opposed to the shoe pickup. 

I just fond this on ebay. Every now and then you might see parts for this on ebay. I will let you know if I can find some sites for parts.

Good luck and please keep us posted on your progress.

Yes there are several ways. I use a Shutterfly account, they are free. I upload a picture into a Shutterfly folder and then open the picture in Shutterfly by double clicking on it. Then I right click on the picture and copy, then in the post text just paste. It works for me.Very easy.  Many use  Photobucket but I don't know how that works.

Hello to all.  I need your help please.  I have been trying to restore some A/F (what I think to be,) #3211 cabooses that are illuminated.  I need a resource for the shoe contactor, I think? and the light assembly!  Also I need a resource for the  windows that have the brass finished trim.   Is there a way to upload pictures that show what I am talking about.  Thanks, Archie
