I’ll let Customer Service Director Mike Reagan tell the rest:
“We have found a good pile of Postwar parts and have subsequently
updated the part descriptions with the Postwar part numbers. The descriptions
look like this
“2-WHEEL TRUCK (POSTWAR # 53-14). The keyword for sorting
these parts is “Postwar part number”. There are several hundred more to go, but
this will help folks get started.
“Spent 48 hours streamlining part descriptions too. A few of
the improvements are as follows:
All steam locomotive trailing trucks & pilot trucks are
now displayed as “2-WHEEL TRUCK / TRAILING / LOCO IT BELONGS TO” and also
“4-WHEEL TRUCK / PILOT / LOCO IT BELONGS TO”. The same applies to tender
trucks too. Sorting keyword is “-wheel truck”.
“Other part descriptions include “DC Motor”, “AC Motor”,
“Collector / Liondrive”, “Motor & Gearbox assy”
“We finally received motors to replace the motors originally
delivered in the pylon gearboxes, so we are able to repair any gearboxes from
the pylon’s, should they fail. These motors are assigned to all pylon parts
lists.
“That’s about it for now! Stay tuned for more this week!”
Thanks Mike for all of the hard work! Remember, you can find all of this information on Lionel.com under the Customer Service tab.
