Q: I own a Marx no. 6000 Southern Pacific A-A diesel and would like to find new bushings for the axles. Do you know where I can locate these parts?
A: I’ve found parts for Marx locomotives at local train meets. There always seems to be plenty of Marx engines in varying states of demolition and you can undoubtedly find one like yours that has good bushings. Actually, I rarely tear Marx engines apart, since I’ve discovered that its usually easier to find a replacement mechanism that works properly.
You can also find parts online at places like Parts4Marx and online auctions like eBay.
