Part name? Description? Location? Picture? That’s my 4 guesses

Not sure if you'll find heavy mike parts there - mostly diesel parts. If not, contact Rob Kluz at Ztrack.com. He might be able to help you out.

bxley, Welcome, I hope you find the parts you're looking for.
sjl, You can always build it piece by piece, like Johnny C's song about a Cadillac. Bazman, I was thinking the same thing! Scott

What should I search for? Thank you Usually if a loco is broken or someone else tried to fix it, and just left it in pieces, it's a "donor" as in parts for another loco for fixing. I usually look on Ebay under "Z-scale" or "AZL", or even "American Z Line" in the search.

We have started stocking common parts for our locomotive releases over the last two/three years, but the mikados were made before that. I’m away on spring break, but let me see what I can find upon my return to the office. No promises, but I may have something that could help. What’s the railroad of the locomotive?
