After searching Lionel's website in vain for the plastic horn for my 6-48075 NH EP5 of a couple of years ago, I sent an inquiry to Talk to Us and got this reply: Rich, I do apologize we don't have any parts available for this engine. You can check with S&W Parts Supply www.sandwparts.com or North Lima Train Works 330-406-2811. Thank you Lionel Really? NO Parts?

From what I understand, there were just some parts that there were not any made extra of.  After talking with Mike, they get their extra parts from breaking down built-up, ready-to-sell units...  This means that depending on how far they break down the shell, there might not be any parts.

 

For example, try finding the MU stands on the front/rear deck of the RS-11s, or the single note horns from the sides, that definately break off...

 

We feel your pain, Rich.

 

Thanks,

Mario

As near as I can tell, the horn is the same one used on the original Gilbert AF diesels and the EP-5. I just compared my Gilbert AF horns with the ones on my Lionel diesels and EP-5s and they look identical. (someone correct me if I'm mistaken). Doug Peck at Port Lines Hobby Supplies has these horns for $1.00.

 

If in doubt, you can email Doug at doug@portlines.com and he'll be able to tell you for sure if the horns are a match.
