Windows for an LGB dining car and a coal bin cover for a Stainz locomotive

[mtrosclair]

I'm missing half of the windows on my little dining car I'm hoping somebody has a parts car that has a set in them. I also need a coal bin cover for my loco.

I look and see if I have any.

My Stainz also had a missing cover - the open one was still there - so I made one from two pieces of black plasticard, added hinges (again from plasticard) and modelled it closed, so as to not have to model the coal too.

Found one and put in a cheeky bid. If I get it, I'll make replacement sets available on ebay.

The dining car finally arrived after having been delayed by the snow. Are you still looking for a spare part? Its a bit more complex than replicating the window frames alone. The moulded insert includes window tables as well as a double back bench and another single bench.
I could produce the frames by themselves easily and cheaply. A little more if you wanted the perspex included. To replicate and replace your missing part completely is a bit more involved. Let me know if you are interested.

modell-land.de has many window parts for LGB 3000 series coaches postage horrendous joint orders make sense

I'll be in Germany the second week of August. Feel free to PM me and I can org it for you and forward it on.

I should mention I couldn't help myself when I saw a Stainz for around £60 on ebay I'll have a look at the coal bin covers when it arrives. Looks pretty straightforward.

I did end up finding the loco parts, there's a guy on eBay that has them. As for the dining car it's seeming like it might be cheaper to just find a beat up one for parts.
