Brake wheel on top of the engine body. Headlight bulb, cab bulb, Roller contacts, truck to body screws I in closed pictures to show what im working with. If there are any other repairs that you recomend please feel free to share

Sorry, your images did not come out.  One place that you may try to get all your part numbers is to go to Olsen's Toy Train Parts on the web.  They have  a postwar library that has diagrams.  From there, you can either order the parts through them, or try any of the parts dealers listed in CTT.  Some like the Train Tender have good reputations.  Fortunately, in this hobby, you will find most parts dealers to be pretty good about getting the parts to you, but some do have a "handling fee" or some other service fee of about $10.00 per order.  Keeping this in mind, you will want to assemble your list and place one order instead of several.

The "brake wheel" is actually meant to be a radio antenna.

Number 1445 lamps are probably best for the lights, although 53 is probably easier to find (Radio Shack) but shorter lived, and 363 will burn out quickly.
