Greetings all,

I just got an old Walthers BART Powered car off ebay. When I finally got the car (post office was a different story) I discovered the car did not come with the Tenshodo power truck. Does anybody know a good place to look to find a suitable or original replacement truck, or does any body have a spare power truck that they are willing to sell? I reached out to the buyer, who said that the car was from an estate, and what came was all that came with the car. I reached out to Walthers and am waiting to hear back from them.

Thanks for any help that can be offered!

You will have a hard time finding replacement parts, try Bowser's site for a possible replacement drive in the
Trolley/Interurban section. NWSL had the "PDT",unknown if it's still in production.
