I’m in need of a few parts that the Lionel website lists as only available from North Lima Trainworks. I emailed them with a question a week ago - and followed up with another email several days later - and have yet to receive a response. So, today I called, and the outgoing message states that due to the high volume of holiday business, they can’t accept phone messages. They hope to be back on top of things by the first of the year. Well, does June 11 qualify? Does anybody know what’s going on here? Not wanting to start a bashing thread, but this sure doesn’t seem like a good way to do business.

49Lionel,

 

I purchased some parts a couple of weeks ago.  They have been slow as molasses getting the new web site up and the confusion lies, I believe, in the old link still being around. The email listed is a gmail account which is probably never accessed.

nltrainworks.com is a dead end.  nltrainworksinc.com is the new site, but you still have to input the correct Lionel part number using the search function.  The old, original site was really nice in that you could browse through all the parts they actually had in stock.  They had pictures also.  I picked up some stuff for scratch building this way.

Two things: first, the flanged drive wheels from the Lionel scale PRR turbine - SKU is 6108010020 on their website, but it's not clear if there are traction tire and plain versions.  Ideally, I'd want two of both, but could live with four tired ones.  Also, the side rod screws for these drivers are SKU 6108006917 on the Lionel website, but aren't on the NL Lima website.  I'd like to know if they have them, so I don't have to pay a bunch of shipping from Lionel on four $.50 parts!

 

Chuck - as long as I have you - do you do wheel pulling/mounting and quartering?
