How to Add Pictures Rocky
I'm missing the linkage between brake shoe to pull brakes on. Does anyone have a picture or are you able to describe part. Many thanks Max

Hi Max..... Check out the brake specs in the Tech Page. Click on button on the left. If your Star has the "railroad type" brakes see the article about Star brake adjustment. It has pictures of the linkage on my car. If you have the outside band type brakes let me know and I will take some pictures of one of my other cars.... Frank ---

If my article on adjusting the railroad type of brakes doesn't have a picture of what you need, let me know. I have other pictures and the car is in my garage now. I'd be happy to send them to you.
