Ho Seeker Access Issue

Model Railroader General Discussion (Model Railroader)

So, one of my winter projects will be to revitalize an old Mantua 0-4-0 shifter and tender. You know this old chestnut- the one with the metal boiler and the brass-wheels on the sloped tender!

I figure my best starting place is an original diagram and go to HO Seeker to look up the original drawing. Imagine my suprise when I select the Mantua 0-4-0 shifter and get “permission denied” as a response. I then try the Tyco category for their 0-4-0 and get the same thing.

Is it some setting on my phone or is there a problem with the HO Seeker site in general ??

And if so, how could I get an exploded assembly diagram alternatively?

I just went to the site and everything seems to be functioning properly.

I’m using an old fashioned desktop PC running Windows and Chrome. I don’t know how to change security settings on a telephone.

If you don’t have any other resource, send me a PM and I can scan the diagrams and send them to you?

Good Luck, Ed

Thanks Ed- first I’ll try things on my desktop computer and see if it’s working. If not you’ll hear from me![:)]

Use this link: http://hoseeker.net/ You can’t get in if you use other deeper links.

That always works.

To date, no one can post any other diagram. I and others have found that out. Here and other forums.

All you can do is do a screen shot with your PC and then post the photo here with say Photo Bucket.

I use to text the administrator, Larry, some years ago but he no longer responds.I sent in scans back then.

It might be all A.I., artificial intelligence software operated.

For reasons I can’t understand that link stopped working for me but I now use this one and go “backwards” if there are other parts of the site I want to visit:
http://www.hoseeker.net/lit.html

That’s because the website was changed from a .net to a .org.

So what you want is: http://hoseeker.org/

Thank you. My bookmark is net. I never noticed that little change.

The site still shows hoseekernet, upper left.
