Hi All

Can anyone tell me where I can get the assembly drawing for the LGB V200?
 
Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately I didn't find the drawings I needed but in the end I did not need them. The problem I had was that 1 of the motor blocks stopped running. When I took it apart I was some what surprised/shocked to find that the long established coloured wiring that was so easy to trace is now all black 2 core cable with a fine white tracer on 1 core. 3 wires had become disconnected from the motor blocks (1 at 1 end & 2 at other). Is this progress or just cost cutting?

i have repaired 4 v200 so far, all suffering this fault ..its a common fault.. the wire isnt up to the job, its lacking in flexablity, and sufferes from brakages.. i repace it, and re wire, ..also watch out for the missing screws from the motor blocks and the crossed pins in the gearboxs leading to blown chips.....yes, i think the chiness factury were cost cutting.. shame, as it spoils a beautuifull loco

Fortunately it is not my loco but a repair job for a customer. I think it's an ugly bugger. His was also the fornay that I repaired recently along with a GE4/4.
