I was digging my trains out of storage today (no space for layout, being in college and all) and I discovered a few damaged items. <br /> <br />-apparently in a moment of lapsed judgement several years ago, I glued the dynamic brake housing of an Athearn SD40-2 in place backwards(!). I broke it free, but at the cost of a tiny little corner of the part. <br />-the bell of my Athearn SW1000 has traveled to parts unknown <br />-two of my Athearn Husky Stack cars have lost ladders <br />-my only Walthers 89' Twin 45 flat car has lost its brake wheel <br />-ladders fell off of a MDC tight bottom ore car, but managed to not vanish into thin air <br />-a box containing at least four cars has decided to go into hiding, taking my sole passenger car with it. This box was one of two stored in a different place than the rest of my things because some of the things in it were used as recently as 2002 under the Christmas tree <br /> <br />Anyhow, where would be a good place to get the parts I need? I can't think of a replacement dynamic brake made by someone other than Athearn, same with the Husky Stack ladders. I figure I can get a bell and brake wheel almost anywhere, but I don't know what kind of wheel is suitable for the flat car. And that missing box of rolling stock is making me cry on the inside, but none of you people can help with that. <br /> <br />In exchange for help, please accept this picture I took with lousy digital camera that doesn't like taking good pictures of things that are distant and outdoors: <br />[img]http://mywebpage.netscape.com/RainKing%20nbc/000_0108.jpg[/img]
