Hi Everybody

I am based in Cumbria, U.K. and I model the Santa Fe in N-Gauge in Steam ( Steam era to transition period).

I am trying to source spares for my Atlas/ Rivarossi N-Gauge 0-8-0 Switcher.Model No 2112

Its 40 years old still going strong but in need of spares!

In particular a lower long con rod connecting the the first and third wheels on this Loco.

If anyone could help I would be grateful.

Ahoy!

Welcome to “this side of the pond”!

Unfortunately, you’ve wound up on a forum where the discussion is about Classic Trains of the REAL kind.

You will have much more success with your inquiry by directing it to the Model Railroader forum . . . check out the way things are organized 'n you’ll quickly get the drift!

Hello Cumbrian “Sante Fean”, Try Golf Manor Hobbies at www.golfmanorhobbies.com (they can be kind of slow at answering email) or ph (513) 351-3849 3pm-9pm Eastern Standard Time. I had to get parts for an old Rivarossi Y6b (HO Scale), they can be a bit pricey. They are supposed to have a good supply of Rivarossi/AHM parts and might be good for the N scale stuff.

Good luck

Andrew

PS: Sorry I can’t remember which state they are located in off hand.

I ditto what Andrew said, and add that Golf Manor Hobbies is in Cincinnati, Ohio.

I have repaired several HO AHM/Rivarossi locomotves with parts from them.
