Clumsy old ******

[DennisR]

At a standstill on `Dilly` at the moment, weather not to my liking, so I thought I`d catch up on my other interest namely my Bachmann model railroad engines. I collect the steam variety in `G` scale, shelf queens until I get around to building a track, and thought they could do with a dusting off so I duly took them down, one by one, then, disaster, I dropped the tender of the K27, *@#$>%^*, 2 steps snapped, a corner broke off and some other possible repairable damage.
The reason for this post...........I have exhausted all attempts to find either a tender chassis, or complete tender, or just a couple of steps, the model is out of production, Bachmann don`t have the parts so can I ask if anyone has or knows where I can obtain them it would be very much appreciated.

JB Weld or Super Glue can help fix many things. Can't help on replacement parts though.

Dennis, I have been to two of these places a while back. Not sure if they can help but, maybe worth a try. Good luck.

Hi Vern, did you mean a pic of the damage, which is just on the tender or did you want a pic of the engine, here is a couple of pics of the damage, one shows the broken corner which I have superglued, and also the step which is beyond repair, and there is a second step for the other side in a worse state. The second pic shows a step in situ as it should look.
