Hi mikadousrp
Have you tried Lionel's service department they should be able to help you
even if its only to give you a part No.
Would also sugest you pose the same question on the toy trains forum
they may be able to help as well.
Could also be worth keeping an eye on Ebay (If you trust it) local garage sales Ect you never know whats going to turn up.
regards John

Hi,
I checked with Classic Toy Trains magazine, and they do not know of a source. You might have some luck, as John suggested, by calling the service department or perhaps by poking around their web site. Or have you thought about calling a local hobby shop? If they do repairs they might have some sitting around.
