Dear colbd,
Give the service department a call. They may be able to help.
Have fun!

Also try Caboose Hobbies. I've gotten two from them. Bachmann sells them as separate parts. You'll find them for around $17 or so.

The Road Pilot is item No. 88016.

It along with other parts for the K-27 is listed in the Bachmann catalog. Guess no one thought to look there. :o

Colbd,

I have also replaced the snow plow on my 464 with a road pilot.  It is relatively easy.  The short shank coupler is included in the bag of detailing parts provided with the engine.  You will need to swap these out as the long shank coupler with the road pilot looks terrible.

Good railroading.
