I have a freight loading platform that I had on my old layout, but never wired it. I just put it on my new layout and hooked it up and the conveyor belt never started. It broke right at startup. It was NOS, but has no parts list to go by. Any suggestions as to where to start looking? I tried Brasseur, but no joy there.

It is available from Lionel. You must purchase the conveyor assembly.
P/N 620-2328-135....$28.00 plus shipping.
Thanks Gerry, great help.
is the platform itself repairable?
meaning make your own belt and also see if motor is good or find a replacement online somewhere?
just asking
Thanks, John. It is a little issue. I haven't taken the conveyor off, but the motor works fine.It was new in the box, but the belt just cracked apart at one end where it sat on the roller. I just need to find a 3/4" wide rubber band that size and I'm all set.
Maybe something like this would work?
Oops...sorry..didn't notice that it was unavailable. I saw where guys make something similar by cutting bike inner tubes.
Just a thought, would a repo belt from the 364 log loader cut and spliced together be a possibility?
