Picked up an AHN light Pacific for $5, but the pilot and smokebox front cover are missing. Does anyone have anything that would be a sufficient replacement or know where I can find something?
Thanks,
Tim

Sometimes parts for these show up on ebay. My catalog indicates the smokebox cover part number is P410-002. Sometimes the "P" is not used. For the pilot, you might try companies like PFM or CalScale.
If you are looking for a smokebox cover and not too concerned with 100% authenticity, I could possibly make one. I would need some precise measurements and a good photo of the part needing replacement. (I'm sure another member on this forum can supply a picture. Here is an example of what I have done for another TYCO forum member.
Unspoken expectations are premeditated failures.

This ebay seller claims to have NOS parts. http://www.ebay.com/itm/RIVAROSSI-HO-SCALE-PARTS-410-002-SMOKE-BOX-COVER-FOR-USRA-LT-PACIFIC-/161318737033?nma=true&si=PNTonxmETtSMUL7UxzotCo5jf7g%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

| Thanks. I may end up selling/trading it off. Looks like it needs more with to get it back to factory. Got it off Craig's List cheap. I can see why. Pics were deceiving.
