Hornby Stanier 2-6-4T rear bogie spring

[Metr0Land]

I've got 2 of the Hornby Stanier 2-6-4's, one was new and the other 2nd hand.  I've just realised the 2nd hand one is missing the rear bogie spring and washer.  The washer's not a problem I can source it from spares.  The spring doesn't seem to be listed as a spare part on the Hornby service sheet.

 

Does anyone know the part number?  Alternatively does anyone do a box of assorted springs of this ilk as it's something lacking from my spares box horde.

I have recently bought one of these, new. It also does not have a spring on the rear bogie, and does not show one on the service sheet either?

I have the earlier Fowler 2-6-4T and that does not have a spring or washer either.

I've also got two; R2635 & R2730, both bought new.

I'll have a look tomorrow and see what they have.

I have one each of the Hornby Stanier R.2635 and Fowler 4P R.2224 engines and have owned from new.  Neither have a spring or washer.  They run just fine without them too.

 

I also own the Bachman Fairburn 4P 32-875 - it does have a spring and washer.

 

Hopefully this helps a little

Just looked.

No springs on either
