Kato 4586C3

Good Morning. I don't know what happened, but a part from my Narita Express coupler broke off, and is nowhere to be found,so I need to order it.My problem is that it isn't available at Hobby Search

http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10151356

or any other English website.

I think I saw them available on a Japanese website http://www.shibuyamokei.com/item/4952844046484/ but I can't order it since I can't read Japanese.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

^{You get the part number which is in the instruction booklet, then you contact KatoUSA directly for it.}

Thanks. I'll do that.

Also try modeltrainplus and loco1hobby, perhaps they can order from kato for you. Katousa can take a couple of months to get parts from Japan and they charged $8 for shipping and handling for the last part I got from them...

Cool! Probably cheaper shipping from Japan than from Katousa in Illinois! Plus a lot faster!
