VOLUME CONTROL

JOHN GOGR Forum Member

I have a santa fe tender #4198 that has a spot on the vc that above the spot it's to loud and below it's to low. Would any one know what info I need to
replace it--I tried the local lionel repair they said they couldn't replace
the part. I can replace it if I knew what to replace it with.
thanks

I don't know where my mind was with #4198 I guess my age is catching up.

any small 10K pot will work. check radio shack for them. I used to get the small blue ones when I added seperate volume controls to qsi boards.
