I haven’t talked to him in several years but he had a huge Rivarossi inventory.  He told me that he was thinking about selling it to a dealer or hobby shop.  If you do get to talk to him let me know what’s up.  I have over 20 Rivarossi locomotives.

Mel can you please send me that phone number again I went to call him and there is nothing in my message box. Thanks J.J By the way not a fan of the SP but a great web page and layout I put it in my favorites to see any up dates you might do.

If it helps, the boiler front from the more recent IHC 2-10-2 is the same diameter as the Rivarossi's. It would have to be adapted. I don't know about availability.

I sent you an IM with some info where I was able to find Rivarossi parts several years ago.  Check your Messages.

I'm looking for help this time finding parts for 2 older rivarossi 2-10-2 steamers I got off ebay years ago.I'm missing the front of the  boilers and any parts that might be included and the back end of one of the tenders. I do not know what type of steam engine other than it is a 2-10-2 I'm very weak in the knowledge about steam engines types.
