Parts Wanted For HO Scale Steam Engines

Tom wants to know where to purchase small parts for his HO scale steam engines.

“One of my steam engines has lost a piece of linkage in the drive train. I am wondering if anybody know who sells small parts like that.”

Can anyone help Ken with this question:

“I am looking for a source for LNG – Propane delivery trucks (I have an N Scale layout). These trucks are used for refilling large propane storage tanks at homes and industries.”

    Hi Tom
    I recently tried to find a smokebox cover for a Rivarossi steamer and the only place I could find one was Golf Manor Hobbies in the USA.They specialize in older loco parts. You do not indicate the brand of loco you have but have a look at their site anyway, here is the link:-

    Ken, I realise this is an old query(October 08) but if you haven’t found those N scale trucks yet, there are two sources I know. On Ebay there is a Canadian seller “Flaktrap” who regularly sells propane trucks & trailers. Also at http://www.rphobbies.com they sell Lineside Models, a range that includes two propane truck kits
