Spence, I'm so sorry to hear about that. Nobody deserves to see a locomotive do a half gainer off the benchwork. I assume you were running pretty fast when this happened?
Can't say anthing on repair or replace as I have never seen seen one of these locomotive before. But still, I'd think someone could build a cab rood with some time and plastic with rivet sheets...
I have a curve on my On30 layout that is ridiculously close to the edge. I plan on building an addition to that side and put a slight rise on the terrain on the outside of the curve to prevent this very thing from happening. I don't run fast at all so trains won't have much momentum to get very far off the tracks.

Agreed.
