Hello & Welcome to the Forum!
Do you have a part number for the item you're seeking?
If you do, might try the Train Tender:
http://www.ttender.com/
If you can't in the exact part you're looking for, you might try adapting one from another locomotive,
stopgap measure until Lionel offers a replacement part or someone makes re-pop parts.

I believe the Legacy Big Boy is such a new locomotive that Lionel has not gotten parts for it yet from the manufacturer.
If Lionel does not have parts for it, no other dealer will either, since the dealers get their parts from Lionel.

Part #6101104071 Its not the vision series its the JLC Legacy big boy. If anyone of you have the vision line and the legacy i was wondering if the pilot from the vision line would fit. Thanks for the help.

Lionel calls the new locomotive the Vision Legacy, my apologies. The Vision Legacy Big Boy is a Made To Order locomotive, and Lionel lists very few parts available for it as yet. http://www.lionel.com/CustomerService/ReplacementParts/index.cfm?doAction=productPartFilter&number=6-11449&productID=890ad571-9e99-4658-804d-1e1cac13a329 I would guess that for a limited production locomotive such as this, that replacement parts will be in short supply.

A call to Lionel to inquire if the newer Vision Line pilot, if it becomes available as a replacement part,  is interchangeable on the older Legacy Big Boy, would save a lot of speculation.

Did Lionel inform you if the part you are looking for will be available in the future?

I did just that after I posted this message and they said it was not interchangeable. I did not ask about availability in the future Thanks for your help.
