Piko Clean Machine missing parts

[LCR Contoller]

Good morning,

Be gentle with me as this is my first post. I have bought a second hand Piko Clean Machine which, to say had not been looked after, would be an understatement. Do Piko do any kind of kit with the various handles and rails?

Thanks

Renny

You probably can find parts in piko-shop.de, but they don't ship to UK since brexit. However, if you find a partnumber at piko shop and parts diagram you likely will be able to get them ordered via one of local dealers.

The hand rails etc are available as Peter suggested. See PIKO Webshop Spare parts:

They just don't ship to UK since 2020 - probably pissed off by some events But local dealers should be able to get parts

The plastic handrails are so flimsy, I would make something up out of metal..

It is doable, but requires skill and tool that not everyone has. I probably would just print it - PETG at 1.5mm is surprisingly strong. But again, skill and tool.

Fully agree but nobody is born with the skill, simple soldering is almost a must for garden or any railway modelling, a simple jig made from a few nails, some cut plastic stripped single strand wire and a bit of old wood with practise can soon built a worthwhile set of handrails, even after a few false starts.
