Anyone know how or have a source to repair the baffles on the Lionel Scale Smithsonian 2 rail passenger cars.  The rubber has deteriorated on one of my cars that has been in storage for years.  Does anyone know if this is generally what happens to them.  I am also questioning if properly done can Dr Mikes glue (CA) be used to repair a brass door weld on same car.  Photos added Thanks for looking 

 

Thanks Buzz

Thanks for the comments.  As mentioned both Lionel and Fine Arts were of no help today. Fine Arts suggested using silicone flashing from a window shop, it must be thin they said. I have also called an old source that Lionel had given me years ago.  The name I had was

His phone no longer works but the internet says he still lives there.  I will write him a note over the next several days. If anyone else knows him let us knows.  I will let you all know if I learn anything. Thanks
