Mi Jak container crane parts needed

There is a brass gear available for that gear, The Train Tender has them in stock.  I bought one last fall at York so when that gear gives out on mine I'll be ready.

Some people have had good luck using JB Weld to make the repair and ordering the metal gear as a back-up.

Glue the gear back together. Then use an appropriately sized drill bit to carefully enlarge the hole for the shaft. Don't go too big! The gear should fit snugly, but move easily on the shaft. Epoxy it in place. That will hold you for quite a while. Or you can pick up a metal one as GRJ has suggested.

The brass gear is the way to go. The gears are nylon, no glue will hold it. Before the brass gears were available I drilled one all the way through and pinned it to the shaft. It held but as it was near impossible to close the crack all the way it jumped at every revolution.

What's the part number at the Train Tender to order?

GRJ, any assistance navigating the train tender parts page would be Extremly helpful

Your best bet is just email Jeff. Contact info is on the website. Being that Lionels parts page is down there is no way to find out the Lionel part number for the gear. Jeffs number system references Lionels numbers. Jeff is very responsive.

I agree with Pete, just call Jeff, he's a great guy and will get you right to what you need.

Thanks to all for there input and help, hands down best forum on the internet  IMO  

Just to follow up, thanks to all for the input and references,  Jeff emailed me first thing this morning and after followup emails and photos of parts, Train Tender has come thru with helping me find another of those hens teeth type items we occasionally just gotta have to keep our lil world chugging along, many thanks to all
