Heljan class 47 self destruct

[pendlerail]

One of my Heljan class 47s 47555 when placing it on my Anyrail print outs, I noticed one of the bodies wouldn't turn. I took the body off and the various bits came out.

 

Has this happened to anybody else? Looks like I need at least 1 part to fix it. Where can I get this? 

Thanks Phil

I presume you’ve noticed there’s no DCC decoder or a blanking plug.

Yes had a sound chip fitted took it out to better see the damage

The piece you need is the bogie top retaining clip. Iirc all the Heljan locos use the same part, so don't be worried by the class 47 sprue not being in stock
