Your best bet to keep the price down is to use parts from other kits. http://cgi.ebay.com/AtomicMods-com-K...3%3A1|294%3A50 I can't think of any other gear sources sorry. Maybe somebody else will come through with info. |

try 'north west shortline supply', they're based out of Seattle. They make gears for the model railroad industry. I've used their stuff for years when I was scratch building model train projects.
