Hi folks,
This is my first post to rec.models.railroad I usually post at rec.games.pinball
But, I've found model railroading to be just about as addictive as Pinball!
I'm refurbing my dad's old Lionel set from the mid '50s (736 Steam Locomotive, etc). Most of it is going well but...
I have a 3472 Operating Milk car and I can't seem to figure out the mechanism which would push a milk can that is in the "on deck circle" into the "batters box" in front of the man who will then push them onto the platform. I'm wondering, if in my youth, I took the car apart and didn't put all of the parts back in. The man pushes a can that is in front of him out perfectly. I just can't figure out how the can gets into the position ready to be pushed out.
Can anyone describe how this is to work, or better yet, if you can email a scan or photo of the exploded parts diagram to me?
Any help is very much appreciated.
Merry Christmas all!
Chris Hibler
