Hi all, I am new to the hobby (my dad and I did some model railroading nearly 25 years ago) so I don't really count that time. Anyways, I like to buy up some old blue box locos as they are fairly cheap and I practice painting, weathering, detailing, etc. on them. I am wondering what to do about an SDP40 I have that has metal side frames. They are brittle and some brake parts are broken off. Is there somewhere I can find replacement metal frames or even the entire truck assembly in the form of an upgrade? Thoughts please?
