Does anyone have any idea where I can get a set of Spectrum SD-45 handrails? Specifically for the black PRR version.
Thanks

You will have to buy a junk SD-45 engine for parts to get the handrails or you can make/buy your own brass replacements.

Try to see if you can get an engine dress-up kit somewhere... That might be your best bet...

Athearn metal rail kit or Smokey Valley Brass rail kit.Athearn more Durable,Smokey less durable ,more difficult ,but very nice if you get er right. They make a few rail kits for B-mann Diesels,Any sd45 metal rail kit will work ,then you paint them and if you go Ath do not use any glue , press fit and crimp is all you need and they will last and stay straight.and if you bend they can be straightened easy ,not so much for smokey.
