Hi Everyone
I am looking for a source for Lionel parts. I have a Lionel 629 Pullman car that needs a wheel. What are the best sources for original parts?
Thanks
There’s a decent variety of parts folks out there, who carry just about everything you might need to fix a train. I would recommend Olson’s Toy Train parts, since they had a site where you could find parts diagrams of equipment, but the site was shut down recently it seems, so that service is no longer available.
Henning’s Trains has their TS-3 wheel, which they say should work with 600 series prewar O gauge cars:

Everybody here has their favorite retailer, so I’d reccomend seeing what others recommend as well. I know that “The Train Tender”, and Dr. Tinker’s toy train parts are both excellent places to get parts. When ordering though, I recommend seeing if you have other parts you need to replace, as ordering one part isn’t as economical as buying a bunch of parts, and sparing yourself the shipping cost of doing it “one by one”, as needed.
"Unless bought from a known and trusted dealer who can vouch otherwise, assume every train for sale requires servicing before use"
