need repair parts
Posted by rrlineman on Thursday, November 2, 2023 8:47 AM

Morning all ! Looking for more repair parts for customers. 1 is the most important, a new can motor for Williams last made 681 turbine reissue. The original has a bad gear and runs slow. 2- I'm looking for the 4 parts that make up the top lens assy for Lionel's prewar # 35 lamp post. I know they were reproduced yrs ago but unable to find who might have them today. they are the U clamp, plastic lens, silver spike top and the threaded brass finial. Need at least 5 sets. Thanks everyone.

I've always hadd good luck using The Train Tender.  Www.traintender.com.  

Been a couple years since I ordered anything from him, though.

this is the first time I heard of Williams making a reissue of lionel’s 681 turbine. IS the any difference between my postwar 681 and your Williams reissue?
