Reply to "Tender for Lionel Santa Fe Northern 37751 - 6-38055"

Most of the parts have arrived.

Couple of things-

I ordered a couple of parts from the later legacy tender version as some parts were not available for the RS5 version.

The drawbar from the legacy tender will need to be modified.  The hook on the back of the engine drawbar is wider than the slot opening drawbar for the tender.  And the tender drawbar appears to sit a bit lower.

I ordered the frame, trucks and speakers from the legacy tender.  My hope is that the tender will sit a little lower.  Also,the older 50mm speaker were not available.

I was able to get the RS5 mother board and the railsounds 5 sound board.  New holes were drilled in the frame to mount the mother board (which now will be located in the rear of the tender).

Currently working through the wire harness needs.  These are a bit smaller than the older TMCC connectors that I am use to.

Did receive the RS5 version tender shell without any problems.

Thanks again for the earlier suggestions.
