My Penn RR Train Master arrived the other day and I just unboxed it and have a couple of issues someone may help me with.
- The “gang-plank” on one end was broken free (looks like one side of the pin broke off).
I was thinking of just gluing it in a stationary position. What type of glue would be best?
- I’m used to having a hatch on the roof to get to the control switches (Run/Program, Smoke/No Smoke, etc.). The instruction booklet says the hatch is behind the front fan. Well, there isn’t a movable panel on the engine at all and no switches on the hunger frame. (See photo)
Any ideas where I can access the control switches?
- The PRR has engine antenna from tip to tail on the roof. About 5 of the anchor struts are broken free. (See photo)
Also, what kind of glue would be best to re-attach them.
I bought the engine from Charles Ro. I’m tempted to send it back for a replacement. It’s a good looking monster puller for the pike, I’m looking forward to seeing it pull a long coal drag.
Thanks for your help and input.
