I'm attempting to location the air tanks and a set of handrails for the Proto 2000 SD7.
Contacting Walthers Parts is a huge disappointment compared to what Life-Like was like. The experience sucks bad.
I need black parts, but any color will do at this point.

Best chance unless someone here has some spare parts would be monitoring eBay for a cheap shell or "parts" unit you can strip the needed things from.

that's all you can do, Walthers will not sell parts for the Proto line. just keep looking at E-bay for junk units.

Are SD9 parts the same?

They should NOT be, but in this case, they might.. I have SD9 parts, and some SD7 too. Will check on specifics. EMD rules !

Air tanks are probably the same, but I believe the Proto 2000 SD7 uses the early-style handrail stanchions while the SD9 uses the later style.

I have the air tanks for sure, and....the pipes for both sides! I assume because you said SD7 that you need the forged railings. Still looking for these, but I'm sure I've got 'em around !
