ROCCO n gauge Austria diesel locomotives erratic operation - Model Railroader Magazine
Hi,
exact item number and picture of locomotive and packaging would be very helpful. Not very much of spare parts of older Roco locomotives are available, but to try to establish if and how much is available, you need item number (in case you need spare parts). Thru that you can download from Roco web site even explosion diagram of related locomotive, which can be helpful not just for spare parts ordering, but also how to dissasemble it.
Also, it is important to know that Roco has ceased to manufacture model trains in "N" scale but has bought Fleischmann brand, and beside Fleischmann N locomotives, also some of Roco N locomotives are now available under "Fleischmann" brand, although they could be slightly technically modified. So thru now "Fleischmann" locomotive you can access data for certain Roco N locomotive (not all, but some). For example, Roco OBB 1044 is now Fleischmann OBB 1044. Item list is here, use instructions here. At least use instructions can provide you some help.
