Adrian Wintle Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Kato themselves? https://www.katousa.com/parts-catalog/information.html Aftermarket type (scroll down) http://www.ppw-aline.com/detlloco.htm (note: they don't ship directly to customers outside the USA, but refer those to Walthers instead) Here's an earlier thread on the subject HTH! Kato USA shows all the SD38-2/SD40-2 handrails as out of stock, but it would be the first place that I'd check. Adrian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Gilbert Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 Kato was the first place I looked and have been out of stock for the last 4 months, which is why I was looking on eBay. It was the Kato handrails I'm looking for, not the aftermarket ones. I just wondered if anyone had a spare set in their spares box. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
w124bob Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Bowser are releasing a Candian spec SD40-2 soon, with excellent parts backup on all their locos might just worth waiting for (not expensive either). A lot of Kato spares are out of stock (GP35 DCC circuit board anyone?) and I doubt the older GP/SD locos will appear again now there is so much competition, pity I would rather like a non dynamic GP35 as I don't want other manufactures locos!
