New here (well just joined anyways). I've been looking at some Tyco GG1s on ebay and there's a couple that look nice but I noticed some pantograph springs missing on them. Anyone know a good replacement? I'd rather not hunt around all over the place for something that matches. I like the Tyco GG1s because they don't match the prototype, sort of like a hybrid GG1. Very unique.

Thanks

or they have an assortment:

Got my GG1:

only problem seems to be "the foam insert has embedded itself into the paint on top of locomotive from age". Maybe I can compound it out? I'll see when I get it. If not, new paint job.

(it has all four pantograph springs.)
