Post subject:  Door hold-open hardware

Niles Canyon Railway needs door hold-open hardware for 2 cars in service: S.P. 2473-2474 articulated chair car (built 1941), and S.P. 10040 Diner (built 1927). Hardware is shown in the attached photos. If you have any spares for sale - even just the clips - please contact me.

Thanks! - Doug Debs

We have several of these. We also maintain a stock of vintage hardware that we collect for the express purpose of helping the preservation community find the parts needed to keep this stuff going.
