@gunrunnerjohn posted:MTH now makes retainers for the drawbar that slip over the end and keep it from disconnecting, but the part number is escaping me right now. It's suspiciously similar to the tubing solution presented previously.
Thanks, Gunnrunnerjohn. My new Proto3 Imperial Pacific Steamer came with that retainer, but when I click the drawbar into the socket and put the retainer on, the drawbar still sometimes loosens ever so slightly when running the engine, and the engine stops. When running it on DCS, it's been a nuisance when it stops.
The tubing may work better. Arnold
