Does anyone know a link to the Lionel replacement parts portion of their website? I know they are shut down, but I need to see a breakdown of parts to help repair an engine. Klicking on "Support" on the Lionel site just shows the Customer Service Relocation notice with no further links.

I suspect until they finish the move that's all you will get. I wanted to download a manual but it was also unavailable.
I think it's a bit low class that the parts site it totally down, I doubt they host it in the building they're moving out of. I also use it as a reference for parts breakdown and manuals.

I've notice over the years that Lionel is a bit narcissistic at times...
I too was needing a manual for a car we pulled out of storage, as well as a parts diagram.
I am glad I put my order in last week, if I had put it off like thought about, it would be mid summer before got back on the mods making to a few F-3's.
I really don't suspect there was anything devious about it. While inconvenient, it's not life threatening.
It's possible it is housed in the same building and maintained, at least for now, by the CS department. When you went to the Support portion of the site, it basically looked the same as it did before the big Web change so to me that tells me it could be a separate server than where the main page is hosted.
Make sense to me as well since they need to maintain the inventory and CS records.
