Old find

[hoscaleuk]

whilst clearing up part of the attic I found a 4 car set of the metroliners
my question is are suitable pantographs available as  spares such as from the modern electric locos

Thanks in anticipation

The Sommerfedlt #927 or #968 are models of a French pantograph that's nearly identical to the ones used on the Metroliner and E60. Those can be found fairly easily online. The other option is Imperial Hobby Production's Stemman pantographs, which were used on the Metroliners in their early years. Unfortunately, IHP disontinued these some time ago, and they are now extremely difficult to find. In your case, with the Sommerfeldt pantos readily available, it would not really be worth the effort to track one of the IHP ones down.
