Proto 2000 Y3 question

Lois:

I simply contacted WAlther's customer support about a problem with one of mine. They DO have some spare parts.... and are most helpful in working with you on it.

Hope this helps.

  My problems with the Proto 2000 Y3 are quite different. I have yet to run mine due to track problems- having to buy wider radius track to replace the Bachmann 22' and 18' radius track that had proved so problematic with my large steam. I got my Y3 used from a person in Arizona, and when it arrived, it must have been roughly handled somehow during shipping, as the drawbar and bell was broken. I have yet to order new parts, as the Walthers takeover of Lifelike seems to change the whole situation somewhat. (If any of you know the new situation with ordering parts for the Y3, please be kind to let me know.)
