Hello, I have a Brawa locomotive model and some parts of the locomotive, including the cab windows, keep falling off when I touch them. Especially one side of the locomotive has fallen off the copper clamp. Can these parts be soldered back on? Thanks.

Yep. They look great until you handle them like a Marklin loco and then all the bits fall off.  Gets worse when you have to take them apart for any reason. More bits fall off. |

Copper clamp?  I did used Brawa before but did sold all of them because small plastic detail are sensible and just fall off or easy broke. To replacement details you have to order reservation details from the factory by name numbers of the details. It stands in the manual of the models which follows. |

With plastic a small drop of plastic cement keeps them in place. Very little in order not to show any cement. Super glue could also be used sparingly.
Good models but fragile and difficult to get to some parts inside if required. |
Take care I like Marklin and will defend the worlds greatest model rail manufacturer. |
