When building a Loco from the spares bin its usually a few small items that halt production.
In my case its bolts & Pilot Truck springs.
Bolts I have been lucky with.
Not so the Pilot Truck springs for the HO Y6B & the Casey Jones. (160-040-0105 is the # for the Y6B & 265-039-0025 the Casey Jones) They are like hens teeth to find.
I either lose them or stretch them to a useless length when refitting.
Does anyone have any pristine ones lying around they wish to part with or has anyone found a substitute?? Tanked
