Thanks..

Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.

Sorry but as far as I know they stopped stocking parts for the older item years ago, they barely have any parts for recent items, best bet is to call around to shops around the country that still stock large scale and/or used to stock Aristo and see if they still have have any new old stock (NOS) item laying around, helps if you know what part numbers you need, barring that, look on Evilbay for another Pacific, buy it and strip it for parts, sorry if that sounds tedious but thats the lay of things these days in large scale land.

I'm in the same boat, I just bought an Aristo 0-4-0 on Ebay, it arrived with loose wheels and a bum motor, I was able to find a replacement motor on ACs site, but whether it actually arrives remains to be seen, as for the wheels that will be a job for JB Weld.

   Have fun with your trains
