jamespetts Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I recently bought a secondhand Dapol class 58 which is missing one buffer: the missing buffer appears to have broken off the shank in the shaft, so I anticipate that any replacement will have to be glued. Does anyone have any idea where I can find one of these? I have had no luck with Peter's Spares. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Departmental203 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I went into DCC Supplies website and looked for spare buffers as there is plenty of spares there. There were no Class 58 buffers however, there were a pair of Class 35 "Hymek" buffers with their oval shape.

jamespetts Posted July 15, 2018 Author Share Posted July 15, 2018 Thank you. I am not sure whether they are quite the right size, but I have ordered some as it is likely to be better than a gap at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Steven B Posted July 16, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 16, 2018 Another option is to loose the other three buffers and replace them all with turned brass ones from BH Enterprises (assuming they still stock such a thing!).
