Parts Needed

 We have the bell and cradle in stock.

Not sure I've ever seen the lights on in a B-unit...particularly when it's rolling down the track.  Actually, I've not seen lights on in the 'porthole area' of an A-unit, either.  These are not typically while-we're-running personnel areas...just for maintenance or passing-through, as I understand it.  Baggage cars are in the same category...typically lights-out, except when in a station for loading/unloading. 

I wouldn't take the time to add lights in any of these areas, but that's just MHO.  I'm sure others will offer differing opinions.

Can't help with the parts...but I share your frustration in finding some of these.  Good luck!

I could order from Lionel but the $9 shipping is a bit much for something that should cost $1 in an small envelope.>>

At the Oct York I had a conversation with Jeff, AKA Train Tender, about shipping.  The only thing that can be shipped in a flat envelope is something Flat, like a decal.

The postal machines will tear up anything with three dimensions.

The smallest postal "If it Fits, it Ships" box is now, what, $5.25?

Some small, light boxes can be shipped for less than $5, but they have to be really light.

I don't like a flat minimum of $9, but anymore it's not that far off.

Does anyone put lights in their B units?

Only at the ends over the doors as per prototype!

The 2332 pick is for a single motor GG-1. You need a 2328-171 pick-up assm. 7.00 Also have the bell and cradle but Boxcar has you covered. Shipping would be 3.00 in a padded envelope.
