I have come across two 20 yr old Pacific Fast Mail 2-8-2s that are in pretty rough shape. I can not locate PFM for parts, are they still in business? Is there another source for parts, I need rods, screws, lead & trailing trucks.
PFM is gone. You can find, Not replacement parts
but repair parts from Precison Scale, Bowser and
MDC. These manufactors also can supply lead and trailing trucks that are appropriate. The Side Rods you’ll probally have to scrath-built to fit.
It sounds like you have quite a project ahead of you.
I hope it goes well.
Look in Model railroader magazine for These 2 brass dealers: “The Caboose” and Caboose Hobbies". They have helped Me find parts before. If they can’t help email Me at maddmech@aol.com. I know of a fellow that has odd brass parts. I won’t list his name here as I don’t believe he wants his name or email getting around. If You want to sell them, I could use some spare parts.
