Thanks Hot Water and RickO; I have googled micro fasteners and came up with 2 places: 'MicroFasteners' and 'FastenerExpress', who have screws that are close.
Hot Water - could not find any out of New Jersey. OOPS, RickO's suggestion to give Lionel a shot disappeared.
Have found 2M X .4 X 8mm but no 1.9 mm X .4 X 8mm; does anyone know what 2M means as compared to Lionel's 1.9mm.

I assume 2M means 2 mm which is a common size used by both Lionel and MTH. 1.9 is an odd size. I checked McMaster Carr and they have 2mm, 1.8mm, 1.7mm, and smaller but no 1.9.
Do you have any means to measure yours? 2mm is just a hair under .080". 1.9mm is just under .075"

Thanks Pete; will attempt to find my micrometer.
