Screw Issue

CR Chris RochOGR Forum Member

Hi Everyone, I'm new to the forum.  Have read numerous articles here and decided to give it a try.  I recently purchased my first Legacy ES44AC, specifically sku #2033530.  Previously I was running two Lionchief and two Lionchief + engines on a 5x12 layout in my basement.  When the engine arrived, the two screws which hold the Electrocoupler to the engine were missing and were not inside the sealed box.  I emailed Lionel and Charles Ro regarding it but have not received word back and was wondering if anyone experienced the same or knew what size/type screws were needed for this.  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the info guys - I probably described it slightly wrong, the single screw connecting the electrocoupler to the bracket was there, there are two screws connecting the bracket to the frame which were missing causing the coupler and the bracket to hang loose.  I ended up taking one of the screws off of the front coupler bracket to our local hardware store and was able to find the correct screw size.  I will post pictures for reference once the screws arrive in case anyone else has issues.  I looked at a google search and it appears several people have had the same issue with ES44AC's. 

I'll keep ALEX M in mind for future issues.  Thanks guys!
