pics are blurry but it looks like the wrist pin came out its not in the box you stored it in ??
you can call or email bli & give them the box number & if you have a parts sheet they can
send you 2 wrist pins for cheap money .
i have blueline big boys & i order parts for them or other old bli all the time
ok thanks . yes i have the original box with all the paper work

Looks like just a matter of putting the "screws" back in. Actually I believe they are hex headed tiny shoulder bolts. They should be just hiding there in box amid that the foam somewhere.
I am happy to report that i found the tiny screw and after locating my glasses hahaha i got it back together and it is working great. one happy model railroader here. thanks for all the input.
