Screws for ATLAS/RR Passenger Cars


 

I just picked up a #2662 Santa Fe Corrugated Baggage car from Ebay.

As happens occasionally this car had a little surprise - a previous
owner apparently lost one of the screws and replaced it (crudely) with
an ill fitting screw. I think the thread on the "cylinder" is still
good so ...

A) Does anyone know what size (pitch, thread, etc) these screws are?
B) Better yet, can anyone recommend a source for a replacement screw
that will work?

Thanks!

Send me your address and I'll send you a set of those truck screws and
cylinders I have sitting in my junk box. I have quite a few of these
screw/cylinder thingys laying around as I'm not a fan of screw mounted
trucks.

Email me offlist.
