On one of my boxcars as I was running them I could not figure why one truck was almost derailing on a Ross crossover. I watched as the train went through the switch and on one truck the brake shoe was hanging down and catching the track. I have not taken the truck off the car yet. So my question is this detail a snap in part or a glued on part. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks Paul

are you referring to the 86' boxcars?=jim
Yes I am referring to the scale 86 foot box cars.......Paul
Lima, that is the part. Does it snap into place because right now it hangs down and catches the rail every so often so I had to take it off the track.Thanks.........Paul
Lima I took the truck off the car and found out those brake assemblies just snap in. The one I took off had only one knob holding it on to the truck so the other half of the brake was hanging down. That part number seems to be out of stock. I doubt very much that it is an item that is stocked regularly. I am going to email my dealer and see if he may have the part or know of where or who may have them............Paul
