I collect OO as well and in Australia it’s been hard to get parts. ebay UK has nearly everything you need and there are major sellers that if you ask, they will have the part or know where to get them.

It is a simple solution and one that a lot of people won’t have thought of. Your thoughts and ideas are a great help to the model railroading community. Hopefully you will inspire others to share their ideas rather than keep their years of knowledge to themselves.

You can usually get a real good buy that way. I actually bought 3 steam locos for for parts for $18.00 and was actually able to salvage a lot off these and leave the carcases in my train grave yard on the layout. Nothing goes to waste here. By the way the motors were still operating on some. Tony P
