Does anyone no the part number and service manual description of the rivet that attaches the oilier (sometimes referred to as the valve gear) to the boiler casting of the 682 turbine? Thanks for the help. It is much appreciated.

682-5. The stud is 682-9.

It's called the "lubricator linkage".

Thanks Jon. To clarify: Is 682-9 the stud in the wheel and does 682-5 attach the linkage to the boiler casting? Thanks again.
The stud attaches the linkage to the boiler casting. It just presses into the hole.

Many Thanks Jon. I think I've got it straight now. Any idea where I can get the stud?
Call Jeff at The Train Tender. 75 cents each.
I placed what sounded like one of his last orders yesterday. He made it sound like he was not going to be shipping much due to NY shutdown. But definitely give him a try. He's usually prompt with the emails.

He's exempt from mandatory shutdown, so that doesn't make sense.

Tell him that. This is what i got advising me to let him know what i wanted.
..........I will be mostly shut down this week.
As of 8 PM 3-22-20 , New York State wants all non-essential business to close. I have no helpers here to pick and pack orders. Hopefully things will return to normal soon.

If you can't wait there are some ebay, but overpriced.

Well, you left out those details.
If he lays off his helpers, he only has one employee - making him exempt, but being only him, it may be too much work to keep up the usual volume.
He is also in a rather remote area, so nobody of authority is going to notice if he stays up & running except the postal carrier.
Thanks guys. I need some other parts, so I will wait until Jeff is up & running again.
