Advice for a Replacement Bell

Power PoyntPower PoyntOGR Forum Member

Hello, I acquired an MTH Z-6 (20-3272-1) that is missing the bell from the front of the boiler. The MTH replacement part would be FB1100441, which includes the bracket... this is moot because that part isn't available. So, I've been looking through Lionel's parts website. They have a plethora of bells available, but am not sure how to proceed in choosing one that is the closest match for my MTH locomotive.

Does anybody have advice or experience related to replacing a bell with a non-OEM bell?

Thanks!

Lionel bells are nice. Most are two part with just a bell and the plastic yoke. Lionel sells just the bell or both together and many of the bells have the hole for the clapper which is what yours appears to need. PSC are nice but not the best choice here as yours already has the yoke and clapper. Chuck’s selection would be the easiest to deal with.
